The US clean electricity transition continued as wind and solar generated more than coal for the first time. Electricity demand growth sped up and solar generation rose more quickly than gas to help meet it.

27% growth in solar, 8% growth in wind is actually comparable to other 2 big regions.
China 28% solar, 18% wind (from much larger base though. They achieved decline or near zero growth of fossil electricity while massive demand increase)
Europe 4% solar, 37% wind. Also larger base that saw 10%+ reduction in fossil electricity. Still demand increase.
