With rising investment of clean technologies and rapid growth in electricity demand, the WEO 2024 examines how far the world has come on its journey towards a safer and more sustainable energy system, and what more needs to be done to reach its climate goals.
By 2035, the share of solar PV and wind in electricity generation exceeds 40% globally in the STEPS, and by 2050 increases to nearly 60%. The share of nuclear power remains close to 10% in all scenarios. Fossil fuels met 80% of global energy demand in 2023.
Electrification is accelerating—our analysis suggests that between 2023 and 2050, electricity consumption could more than double in slower energy transition scenarios and nearly triple in faster scenarios. This is in comparison to total energy consumption growth of 12 to 21 percent over the same period, depending on the scenario.
Clean generation reached more than two-thirds of EU electricity, double fossil’s share, as hydro rebounded and nuclear partially recovered from last year’s lows alongside the increase in wind and solar. Coal was already in long-term decline, and that trend resumed in 2023.
The global energy system is fragile, lacks redundancy, and is highly complex, all of which means that bottlenecks could have significant efects if they go unresolved.
Also, final energy consumption decreased in 2022 (to 940 Mtoe, -2.8% compared with 2021), to the lowest level since 2014, except the year 2020, which was impacted by the pandemic. The 2022 level is 11.2% away from the 2030 target (no more than 846 Mtoe).
