## Economic growth is becoming more electricity intensive.

Electricity demand set to grow 2.5x faster than overall energy demand through 2030. This is not just a question of scale — demand is emerging faster, in more concentrated locations and with higher reliability requirements. Meeting this demand securely, affordably and sustainably will require power systems to expand and modernize at an unprecedented speed and scale. Capital and proven technologies exist. The constraint lies in the conditions required to plan, finance and scale power systems.
