The world used clean energy sources to meet more than 40 % of the demand for electricity last year for the first time in the 1940s, as the numbers appear.
A report issued by Energy Thinktank Ember said the teacher was supported by solar power, which has doubled in the past three years.
The report has found that solar farms have been the fastest energy growth source in the world over the past twenty years in a row.
“The solar energy has become a global energy engine. Associated with the battery storage, Solar is scheduled to be an indelible power. As the fastest growth and largest source of electricity, it is important to meet the growing demand for electricity at all,” said Phil Macdonald, Ember Administrative Director.
In general, solar energy remains a relatively small part of the global energy system. It constitutes approximately 7 % of electricity in the world last year, according to EMber, while wind energy is slightly more than 8 % of the global energy system.
Fast -growing technologies remain dazzling due to water energy, which have been relatively fixed in recent years, and constituted 14 % of the world in the world in 2024.
Water power is one of The oldest renewable energy technology in the modern worldA large percentage of global electricity is in the 1940s – when the power system was about 50 times younger than it is today.
The continuous growth of solar energy means clean energy – including nuclear energy and biological energy – on the right path to expand faster than the total demand for electricity in the world, according to Ember. This should mean fossil fuels that are beginning to get out of the global energy system.
Ember had previously expected the year 2023 to be the year in which it was Electricity emissions reached peakAfter a plateau in the first half of the year.
Climate experts were then hoping that emissions will start falling, however A series of heat waves around the world Increased demand for air conditioning and air conditioning systems, which caused fuel electricity growth by 1.4 % in that year.
The report, which represented 93 % of the global electricity market in 88 countries, found that increasing demand for demand pushed emissions from the global energy sector by 1.6 % to the highest level ever last year.

McDonald said it is unlikely that thermal waves are unlikely to increase the increase in demand next year – but the increasing use of electricity To operate artificial intelligence, datacenresIt was expected that the electric vehicles and heat pumps were expected to play a greater role in the world’s appetite for electricity.
The report found that these technologies represented a 0.7 % increase in global electricity demand in 2024, and doubled what they contributed five years ago.
“The world is watching how techniques such as artificial intelligence and EVS will lead to electricity,” said McDonald. “It is clear that the thorough solar nails and winds are conveniently delivered, and that those who expect fossil fuels to maintain height will disappoint your property.”
