Eurasia Electricity Supply (2022-2027)

Trends (2022-2024):

• Coal generation remains steady, increasing slightly from 267 TWh in 2022 to 276 TWh in 2024, showing continued reliance on coal-fired power in the region.

• Gas-fired electricity grows modestly from 676 TWh in 2022 to 710 TWh in 2024, reflecting a gradual expansion in natural gas use.

• Renewables see moderate growth, rising from 273 TWh in 2022 to 298 TWh in 2024, signaling increasing investments in clean energy.

• Nuclear generation experiences a slight decline from 226 TWh in 2022 to 216 TWh in 2024, indicating reduced utilization or temporary closures of some reactors.

• Other non-renewables, including oil-based power, remain relatively stable but decrease slightly from 15 TWh in 2022 to 16 TWh in 2024.

Future Projections (2025-2027):

• Renewables are expected to continue expanding, reaching 318 TWh by 2027, solidifying their role in the region’s energy mix.

• Nuclear power is projected to recover slightly, reaching 221 TWh by 2027, indicating stability in nuclear infrastructure.

• Coal generation will continue its gradual increase to 291 TWh by 2027, reinforcing its position in Eurasia’s power sector.

• Gas-fired electricity is set to grow steadily, reaching 761 TWh by 2027, suggesting continued investment in gas infrastructure.

• Other non-renewables are expected to decline slightly to 14 TWh by 2027, reflecting a shift away from less efficient sources.

Electricity Supply and TWh

Electricity supply is the total energy generated for use in homes, businesses, and industries. It is measured in terawatt-hours (TWh), with 1 TWh equaling one trillion watt-hours. Different sources—coal, gas, nuclear, and renewables—contribute to the mix, varying by region and policy.
