Global power sector emissions plateaued in the first half of 2023 as wind and solar continue to grow. However, adverse hydro conditions prevented emissions from falling. This report analyses changes in global electricity generation from January to June 2023, compared to the same period last year, to measure the progress of the global clean energy transition.
The report analyses monthly electricity data from 78 countries representing 92% of global electricity demand and includes estimated changes in the remaining generation. It also dives deeper into the top five CO2 emitting countries and regions, accounting for over 70% of global CO2 emissions in the power sector.
