Solar is in actual fact covering the whole of increased electricity demand globally, as of 2026, and still growing fast.

It covered 75% in 2025. And wind the rest, also still growing.

We could have got there faster, but there was, and is, a long running disinformation campaign to deny there was a problem, question the root causes of the problem and demonise the most promising solutions.

So that just happened now, this year? Solar is only barely covering just growth? Decades after it had "killed coal"?

So it took solar that long to take the easiest 8% of global electricity generation share. The long-dead coal is somehow still far a larger producer of electricity. 4x bigger than total solar capacity.
