The article discusses the global shift toward electricity-driven economies, driven by climate change mitigation efforts. Renewable energy sources have surpassed fossil fuels in Europe for the first time in 2025, according to data from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and Italy’s GSE. The transition includes electrification across sectors like transportation, heating, and heavy industry. Globally, coal and gas still dominate electricity production, but renewables—particularly solar and wind—are growing rapidly. In 2025, low-emission sources (nuclear and renewables) accounted for around 43% of global electricity generation, the highest ever recorded. However, challenges remain, including bureaucratic delays in Italy, which hinder renewable energy deployment despite the country’s potential.
Bias read (Center): The article presents factual data and trends regarding the global energy transition without overtly favoring any political stance. It highlights both progress and ongoing challenges, citing multiple sources and presenting information neutrally.
