New Electrification Competitiveness Index Ranks China as Global Leader
A new analysis by the We Mean Business Coalition and RMI reveals that China is leading the global race in electrification, driven by coordinated grid investment and robust industrial policies. While China, France, and Spain demonstrate a 'solid base' with effective deployment and competitive electricity pricing, other major economies face significant hurdles. The report highlights a growing gap between policy intent and actual implementation. The United Kingdom faces a massive discrepancy between established policy and execution, while Germany struggles with grid connection delays totaling hundreds of gigawatts. Meanwhile, the United States is categorized under 'stagnation risk' due to federal policy shifts and severe grid bottlenecks, with over 2 TW of generation and storage capacity currently awaiting interconnection.
