Q

________is the major contributor of hydropower amounting to 34GW from 1991-2000, 137GW from 2001-2010, and 152GW from 2011-2020. provides the largest share of global electricity demand growth in terms of volume, but India posts the fastest growth rate through 2026 among major economies. Following a 7% increase in India’s electricity demand in 2023, we expect growth above 6% on average annually until 2026, supported by strong economic activity and expanding ownership of conditioners.

25
**Global Hydropower Generation**: * also expect ________ to see robust **annual increases in electricity demand of 5%** on average through 2026, led higher by strong economic activity * In the USA, we forecast a moderate increase in demand of ______ in 2024, assuming a reversion to average weather conditions. This will be followed by growth averaging 1% in 2025-26, led by electrification and the expansion of the data center sector, which is expected to account for more than one-third of additional demand through 2026.
Southeast Asia 2.5%
