China's electricity consumption hit an eye-popping 10.4 trillion kWh in 2025 – enough to power every Marvel movie marathon for the next century! 🔌 The National Energy Administration just dropped this historic stat, showing China's power use now doubles the US and outpaces the EU, Russia, India, and Japan combined. Talk about energy dominance! 💥
Behind the numbers? A tech revolution meets climate action: • EV charging demand skyrocketed 48.8% 🚗⚡ • IT sector power use grew 17% (TikTok servers working overtime? 📱) • Household consumption jumped 6.3% as ACs hummed through record heatwaves 🌡️
But here's the plot twist: China added 370 gigawatts of wind/solar power last year – that's like building 100+ Three Gorges Dams worth of clean energy! 🌞💨 Renewables now cover 22% of total consumption, with NEA chief Wang Hongzhi pledging to "keep accelerating green transitions" in 2026.
What's next? Watch how this energy giant balances economic growth with its carbon neutrality pledge. One thing's clear: when China flips the switch, the world feels the current. ⚡🌍
