Ember, a London, UK-based energy think tank, has analysed full-year 2025 electricity generation and demand across EU-27 countries in the European Electricity Review. The analysis showed that the wind and solar generated more electricity than fossil fuels for the first time by reaching 30% of EU power, while renewables supplied nearly half of total generation. Solar output has reached a record level and increased in every EU country, while coal fell to a new historic low share. Lower hydro output led to higher gas generation, increasing fossil gas import costs and contributing to electricity price increases across several markets. The findings highlighted continued dependence on gas and rising reliance on imported liquefied natural gas despite declining coal use. Ember also noted accelerated battery deployment across the EU, supporting evening demand and reducing reliance on fossil-based generation.
