\n Record high temperatures last year fuelled demand for air conditioning, in turn driving an increase in dirty coal-fired power generation in a dangerous feedback loop revealed by a new global survey from the International Energy Agency.
\n ADVERTISEMENTThe rate of increase in global energy demand shot up last year, driving increased greenhouse gas emissions even with renewable energy and nuclear power supplying bulk of new electricity generation capacity.The International Energy Agency reported on Monday a 2.2% increase in global energy demand last year, almost double the average of 1.3% a year recorded in the decade to 2023. But electricity use saw a whopping 4.3% surge, driven by increased demand from data centres, electric cars \u2013 and notably, air conditioners.Extreme weather conditions, especially heat waves in China, India and the United States were behind a fifth of the increased demand for natural gas and electricity last year, and all of a 123 million-tonne (1.4%) increase in the volume of coal burned, chiefly in power stations, the Paris-based intergovernmental agency reported.\u201cThe heat waves around the world, in turn, pushed the electricity demand growth, which in turn gives a push \u2013 in some countries like China and India \u2013 to coal consumption growth,\u201d IEA president Fatih Birol told reporters while presenting the 2025 edition of the Global Energy Review.The clear trend prompted the IEA to abandon late last year its forecast that coal burning was set to peak in the near future, with global demand hitting 8.7 billion tonnes in 2024.All this means that, despite renewables like solar and wind covering 38% of the additional global energy demand \u2013 and nuclear contributing 8% while hitting a global generation record \u2013 over half of the increase was met by a combination of coal, oil and gas, reflected by a 0.8% increase in energy-related carbon emissions.While this is only about two-thirds of the rate of increase seen the previous year, the trend remains very much an upward one, calling into question once more the global appetite for climate action and the net-zero emissions goal that the scientific consensus suggests is the bare minimum needed to arrest rising temperatures.\u201cIf we want to find the silver lining, we see that there is a continuous decoupling of economic growth from emissions growth,\u201d said Laura Cozzi, who leads the IEA\u2019s work on energy sustainability and was lead author of the report. The global economy grew by 3.2% last year, considerably more than overall energy use, returning to a long-term average after some COVID-era turbulence.In addition, the world appears to be on track to meet the pledge made at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai in 2023 to treble the rate of renewables deployment by the end of the decade, Cozzi said. \u201cFor renewables, we are very, very close \u2013 we are at around a 2.7 [times] increase by 2030.\u201dBut as the latest IEA report shows, the same is not true of the pledge to double the rate of annual energy efficiency improvements \u2013 a proxy for demand reduction \u2013 also agreed at the global climate summit that the UN hailed as the \u201cbeginning of the end\u201d of the fossil fuel era.\u201cIf you look at the trends for\u2026last year, instead of a doubling, we have actually seen a halving,\u201d Cozzi said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
