The report also indicates a significant increase in global electricity demand, which is associated with the development of data centers for artificial intelligence and the growing use of electric vehicles. In particular, electricity consumption in China's service sector related to charging and battery replacement increased by 48.8% compared to the previous year, while in the field of information transmission, software, and information technology, this figure was 17%.
These areas have become the main factors contributing to the growth in electricity demand in the service sectors.
The State Grid Corporation of China has announced plans to increase investments in fixed assets by 40% over the next five years, which will allow for the expansion of the country's energy infrastructure.
