Regional electricity consumption data for the year 2025 released, promoting industrial upgrade through the development of new energy sources.

Today, the National Energy Administration released the regional electricity consumption data for 2025. Judging from the trend of changes in regional electricity consumption, regional division of labor continues to deepen, and energy has a significant impact on the layout of industrial productivity. The leapfrog development of the new energy industry is driving a profound adjustment in the industrial regional layout. New energy projects in the western region are speeding up construction, driving the electrical machinery and equipment manufacturing industry, as well as the non-metallic industry, to accelerate towards the west. By 2025, the proportion of electricity consumption in the electrical manufacturing industry, the non-metallic industry, and the non-ferrous industry in the western region will reach 21.9%, 39%, and 69.7% respectively, increasing by 13.6, 6, and 6.7 percentage points compared to 2020. The high-end technology equipment manufacturing industry in the central and western regions is developing rapidly. By 2025, the electricity consumption of the high-end technology equipment manufacturing industry in the central and western regions will increase by 120% and 56% compared to 2020, with the proportion of electricity consumption in this industry reaching 17.9% and 14.3%, increasing by 2.4 and 4.2 percentage points compared to 2020. The central region is accelerating the development of the information industry and the instrument industry. By 2025, the electricity consumption of the information industry and the instrument industry in the central region will increase by 101.8% and 124.4% compared to 2020, exceeding the national average by 32.4 and 94.6 percentage points, with the proportion of electricity consumption in this industry reaching 16.6% and 14.7%, increasing by 2.7 and 5.8 percentage points compared to 2020.
