Electricity demand growth

While slower than the 4.4% surge in 2024, growth forecasts of 3.3% for 2025 and 3.7% for 2026 remain among the highest rates observed in the past decade and well above the 2015-2023 average of 2.6%.

The figure above was extracted from this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.

1 record reports a different value for this same indicator, region and period. We keep both rather than choosing or averaging. The disagreement is itself information.
