6、 countries,and energy-related carbon dioxide(CO2)emissions.The latest data show that the worlds appetite for energy rose at a faster-than-average pace in 2024,resulting in higher demand for all energy sources,including oil,natural gas,coal,renewables and nuclear power.This growth was led by the powe

13、C BY 4.0.Key findings Global energy demand grew by 2.2%in 2024 faster than the average rate over the past decade.Demand for all fuels and technologies expanded in 2024.The increase was led by the power sector as electricity demand surged by 4.3%,well above the 3.2%growth in global GDP,driven by reco
14、rd temperatures,electrification and digitalisation.Renewables accounted for most of the growth in global energy supply(38%),followed by natural gas(28%),coal(15%),oil(11%)and nuclear(8%).Emerging and developing economies accounted for over 80%of global energy demand growth.In China,growth in energy
15、demand slowed to under 3%in 2024,half the rate in 2023 and well below Chinas average annual growth of 4.3%in recent years.Nevertheless,China still saw the largest demand growth in absolute terms of any country in 2024.India saw the second-largest rise in energy demand in absolute terms more than the
16、 increase in all advanced economies combined.Advanced economies also saw a notable return to growth in energy demand after several years of declines,with demand rising by almost 1%.The United States saw the third-largest absolute demand growth in 2024 after China and India.The European Union returne
17、d to growth for the first time since 2017(aside from the post-Covid rebound in 2021).Global oil demand growth slowed markedly in 2024,in line with the IEAs forecast.Oils share of total energy demand fell below 30%for the first time ever,50 years after peaking at 46%.Demand for oil rose by 0.8%in 202
18、4,compared with a 1.9%increase in 2023.However,trends varied between sectors and regions.Oil demand from global road transport fell slightly,driven by declines in China(-1.8%)and advanced economies(-0.3%).Oil demand from aviation and petrochemicals grew.Natural gas saw the strongest demand growth am
19、ong fossil fuels.Demand increased by 2.7%in 2024,rising by 115 billion cubic metres(bcm),compared with an average of around 75 bcm annually over the past decade.China had the largest absolute growth in gas demand in 2024 of over 7%(30 bcm),with growth also strong in other emerging and developing eco
20、nomies in Asia.Gas demand expanded by around 2%(20 bcm)in the United States.Consumption grew modestly in the European Union,notably for industrial use.Global Energy Review 2025 PAGE|6 I EA.CC BY 4.0.Global coal demand rose by 1%.Power generation was the main driver of growth as high temperatures pus
21、hed up electricity consumption for cooling.Intense heatwaves drove coal use higher in both China and India,which together represented the large majority of the global demand increase of around 65 million tonnes of coal equivalent(Mtce).China remained the largest coal consumer globally,accounting for
22、 a record 58%of global coal use.Global electricity consumption rose by nearly 1 100 terawatt-hours(TWh)in 2024,more than twice the annual average increase over the past decade.The increase more than Japans annual electricity consumption was the largest ever,outside of years when the global economy r
23、ebounded from recession.China made up more than half of the global increase in electricity demand,but the rise was broad-based,with growth of 4%in other emerging and developing economies.Electricity demand reached a new high in advanced economies.Rising global electricity use was driven by factors s
24、uch as increasing cooling demand resulting from extreme temperatures,growing consumption by industry,the electrification of transport,and the expansion of the data centre sector.Electricity use in buildings accounted for nearly 60%of overall growth in 2024.The installed capacity of data centres glob
25、ally increased by an estimated 20%,or around 15 gigawatts(GW),mostly in the United States and China.Meanwhile,the continued growth in the uptake of electric vehicles resulted in a rise in electricity use in transport.Global sales of electric cars rose by over 25%,surpassing 17 million units and acco
26、unting for one-fifth of all car sales,in line with the IEAs projections for 2024.In 2024,80%of the growth in global electricity generation was provided by renewable sources and nuclear power.Together,they contributed 40%of total generation for the first time,with renewables alone supplying 32%.New r
27、enewables installations hit record levels for the 22nd consecutive year,with around 700 GW of total renewable capacity added in 2024,nearly 80%of which was solar PV.Generation from solar PV and wind increased by a record 670 TWh,while generation from natural gas rose by 170 TWh and coal by 90 TWh.In
28、 the European Union,the share of generation provided by solar PV and wind surpassed the combined share of coal and gas for the first time.In the United States,solar PV and winds share rose to 16%,overtaking that of coal.In China,solar PV and wind reached nearly 20%of total generation.In 2024,over 7
29、GW of nuclear power capacity was brought online,33%more than in 2023.The new capacity added was the fifth-highest level in the past three decades.Electricity generation from nuclear in 2024 rose by 100 TWh,equalling the largest increase this century outside of the post-Covid rebound.Construction sta

35、g and developing economies such as China and India;higher energy demand due to extreme temperatures;and a trend of poor growth in hydropower output that was only partially reversed in 2024,leading to more consumption of less-efficient fuels in some regions.Global Energy Review 2025 PAGE|8 I EA.CC BY
36、 4.0.Global trends Energy demand accelerates,with electricity leading the way Different elements of the worlds energy system saw very different rates of growth in 2024,reflecting both the impact of short-term factors and deeper structural trends.Global energy demand grew by 2.2%in 2024,a notably fas
37、ter rate than the annual average of 1.3%seen between 2013 and 2023.This uptick was partly due to the effect of extreme weather,which we estimate added 0.3 percentage points to the 2.2%growth.Despite this,energy demand grew more slowly than the global economy,which expanded by 3.2%in 2024,close to it

67、to high energy prices and weaker economic conditions in energy-intensive sectors.In contrast,China and India saw faster energy intensity improvements,although still below pre-Covid-19 rates.The carbon intensity of global economic activity is the product of two factors:the energy intensity of GDP and
68、 the carbon intensity of total energy supply.As noted above,the energy intensity of GDP improved by around 1%in 2024.The carbon intensity of total energy supply improved by 1.1%in 2024.Combining these factors gives an improvement in the CO2 intensity per unit of economic activity of 2.1%in 2024.This

77、ate prior to the Covid-19 pandemic.Most of this growth was recorded in 1Q24,owing to the residual impact of lockdowns in 1Q23.The slowdown was driven by a mix of factors,including the very rapid deployment of electric vehicles,growth in natural gas-powered trucks,the huge expansion of high-speed rai
78、l,and the ongoing downturn in the property sector.In 2023,oil demand had also been boosted by a major year-on-year oil price decline,with benchmark Brent crude prices falling by 18%compared with 2022(and product prices falling further).In 2024,average prices fell only marginally year-over-year and t
79、he absence of a comparable boost contributed to the more muted demand uplift.As a result,while global oil consumption in 2024 recovered to 1.3%above 2019 levels,this was almost entirely due to higher demand for petrochemical feedstocks,which climbed by over 12%over the previous five years.This growt
80、h is highly concentrated in China,where feedstock use rose by more than the total net increase in world oil demand.Feedstock demand growth has remained strong principally due to the absence of efficiency improvements or widespread substitution impacting plastic production or demand.Non-feedstock use
81、s of oil remain dominated by transport applications in road,aviation and shipping.In 2024,these non-feedstock uses were virtually equal to 2019 levels,despite aggregate global GDP growth of about 14%over this five-year period.This highlights the impact of factors such as electric vehicles and high-s
