In 2022, renewable energy led electricity generation additions with 585 TWh, driven by investments in solar, wind, and other sustainable sources. Coal was the second largest contributor (106 TWh), supported by existing infrastructure. Conversely, nuclear energy saw a decline due to maintenance and repairs, particularly in the EU. France, a key nuclear producer, experienced a substantial drop of 84,630 GWh (-22%) in nuclear electricity generation compared to 2021.
