The National Energy Administration of China recently announced that China's electricity consumption in 2025 will exceed 10 trillion kWh for the first time, representing a 5% year-on-year increase.
Lin Boqiang, a professor at Xiamen University's School of Management and director of the China Institute of Energy Policy Research, published an article in the Huanqiu Shibao newspaper on January 19, noting that China has become the first country in the world to surpass 10 trillion kWh of annual electricity consumption. This is more than double the US figure and exceeds the combined consumption of the European Union, Russia, India, and Japan.
This achievement not only symbolizes a new milestone in the scale and vitality of the Chinese economy but also opens the world to the profound transformation of its energy system. The continued growth in electricity consumption is driven by the rise of new productive forces, the advantages of price competitiveness, and the growing demand for electrification of everyday life.
Behind this lies an accelerating structural "green" revolution. China's energy development is steadily moving toward a "qualitative transition" aimed at increasing the system's sustainability and efficiency.
