Electricity demand growth: every country and year, and how it is measured
What the source says
Global CO₂ emissions from power generation rose by a modest 1% in 2024, following a 1.4% rise in 2023, due to a 1.3% y-o-y increase in fossil fuel-based generation amid global electricity demand growth of 4.3%.
Checked: the figure 4.3%is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
