How is global energy consumption changing year-to-year?. Demand for energy is growing across many countries in the world, as people get richer and populations increase. If this increased demand is not offset by improvements in energy
Estimated global data centre electricity consumption in 2022 was 240-340 TWh 1, or around 1-1.3% of global final electricity demand. This excludes energy used for cryptocurrency mining, which was estimated to be around 110 TWh in 2022, accounting for 0.4% of annual global electricity demand.
An estimated 387GW/1,143GWh of new energy storage capacity will be added globally from 2022 to 2030 – more than Japan''s entire power generation capacity in 2020. The US and China are set to remain the two largest markets, representing over half of global storage installations by the end of the decade.
Global investment in battery energy storage exceeded USD 20 billion in 2022, predominantly in grid-scale deployment, which represented more than 65% of total spending in 2022.
Together, we will build future-proof energy systems with the benefits of long duration energy storage.” To complement this storage target, the Long Duration Energy Storage Council envisages a need for LDES capacity – including power and thermal storage – of more than 1 TW by 2030 and up to 8 TW by 2040 to achieve net zero.”
A gloomy economic outlook leads to lower projections of energy demand growth in this Outlook than in last year''s edition.
