China and India's fossil fuel generation fell in the first half of this year, while that of the United States and the European Union rose, according to new data.
The world's four largest economies - China, India, the EU and the US - continued to shape the global outcome, new analysis from Ember says.
China and India both saw fossil generation fall in the first half of 2025 as clean power growth outpaced demand, the global energy think tank said in its report. China remained the leader in clean energy growth, adding more solar and wind than the rest of the world combined, helping to cut China's fossil generation by 2 percent in the first half of 2025.
