Global Electricity Generation by Energy Source 2010-2030

July 22, 2024

Global power generation (TWh) by energy source from 2010 to 2030 including hydro, nuclear, biogas, coal, gas, wind, and solar. Total global power generation from all sources grew at an average annual rate of 2.8% between 2010 and 2022 from under 20,000 TWh to over 27,000 TWh. Incorrys expects total generation to grow at a robust 3.3% annually through 2030 reaching 35,000 TWh.

China’s Power Generation

 

October 15, 2025

The share of natural gas in China’s power generation sector remains low, while coal still accounts for more than 55%. Although the development of renewable energy in the coming decades may slow the growth of fossil fuel consumption and help reduce the use of coal, it is unlikely to impact the increase in natural gas demand.
