    A new report from the IEA forecasts a notable increase in global electricity demand through 2027, averaging approximately 4% annually. This surge is driven by factors such as industrial expansion, heightened air conditioning usage, the electrification of transportation, and the rapid growth of data centers, with emerging economies like China taking the lead. To meet this rising demand, low-emission energy sources, particularly solar and nuclear, are anticipated to play a crucial role. Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology is expected to be especially significant in regions including the EU, China, the US, and India. The report also underscores the challenges to grid resilience posed by extreme weather events and increasing volatility in electricity prices.
