... and other weather factors, but systemic outages have been avoided. Energy companies and network operators have implemented a state of heightened readiness to cope with peak loads. Meanwhile, the share of RES in Europe’s energy mix continues to grow: wind and solar power plants are breaking generation records this summer in Germany, Spain, and several other countries, helping to cover the rising demand without increasing gas or coal combustion. The US is demonstrating an impressive shift in its electricity ...

... to last year – this helped partially offset the demand surge and avoid serious disruptions in energy supply. In the U.S., rapid development of RES is noticeably transforming the generation structure. As of mid-2025, the share of production based on wind and solar has reached around 24%, surpassing coal-fired generation and closely approaching nuclear energy (each of these conventional categories now contributes less than 20% of production). Combined with hydropower and other sources, more than 30% ...

... compared to last year—this helped partially compensate for the demand surge and avoid significant energy supply disruptions. In the U.S., rapid development of RES is significantly changing the structure of generation. As of mid-2025, the share of wind and solar generation has reached around 24%, surpassing the contribution from coal-fired power plants and nearing the level of nuclear generation (each of these traditional categories now contributes less than 20% to overall production). Together ...

... Power Plants: The company directs funds towards updating equipment and improving the efficiency of existing hydroelectric stations, which enhances their productivity and extends their lifespan. Development of Renewable Energy Sources (RES): Solar and Wind Power Plants: RusHydro is investing in projects for the construction of solar and wind power plants, expanding its RES portfolio and supporting global trends towards a shift to clean energy. Geothermal Stations: The company is developing geothermal ...

... record growth. Experts estimate that by 2025 or 2026, total electricity generation from RE could surpass that of coal, making "green" energy the largest source of electricity in the world. Many countries are ramping up investments in solar and wind power plants. Recently, the European Commission approved a massive funding program for wind energy in France amounting to around 11 billion euros —these funds will accelerate the construction of new wind farms and help achieve renewable energy ...
