🚨 It’s finally here… the moment you’ve been waiting for 🥁 Ember’s new Electricity Data Explorer 2.0 is LIVE ✅ Users can now discover more insights from the most up-to-date, open data on global and country-level electricity transitions 🌐⚡️ Here's what's new 👇🧵

The new data explorer from @ember-energy.org is really, really significantly improved --> ember-energy.org/data/electri...

Solar power supplied more than 2,000 TWh of electricity for the FIRST time in 2024 ☀️ Generation from solar has DOUBLED in the last three years, becoming the powerful engine driving the global energy transition. ember-energy.org/lat... #GER2025

Today on Volts: every year, the think tank @ember-energy.org does a comprehensive Global Electricity Review, with data on who's generating power, with what technologies, and how that's changing over time. I discuss the "megatrends" -- booming solar, rising demand, &, uh, China -- with the authors.

How is clean electricity doing globally?

Clean electricity hits 40% globally as solar keeps doubling every two years and China's energy revolution outpaces the rest of the world.
