Average annual electricity demand growth vs Fossil CO2 emissions
Average annual electricity demand growth (multi-month) and Fossil CO2 emissions (annual) worldwide. They are published at different intervals, so each is drawn on its own rather than matched period by period.

The series
Over time
Global. Average annual electricity demand growth is published as multi-month figures and fossil CO2 emissions as annual ones, so they are drawn on separate charts, and no period is matched between them. Read each on its own.

Shared periods
Side by side
No period lines up: average annual electricity demand growth is multi-month and fossil CO2 emissions is annual. A month and a year are not the same measurement window, so no row pairs them.
Provenance
Where these numbers come from
Average annual electricity demand growth
Compound or compound-equivalent average annual percentage change in total electricity demand across a multi-year period.
2 observations charted in Global · source organisations: IEA
Fossil CO2 emissions
Annual carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel combustion and industrial processes (such as cement manufacture).
35 observations charted in Global · source organisations: GCP
