Description
Summary:The world is experiencing a new round energy transition from fossil energy to clean energy. Due to the fact that the electricity is the most usual way of clean energy use, the key to build a modern energy system will be electricity-centric. This paper reviews major countries' history of electrification and summarizes inherent laws of electrification degree rising. The main features of future energy supply turn to clean and low carbon and energy consumption turn to efficient and intelligent, it's expected that future electrification development will leapfrog into a higher and more ubiquitous degree of re-electrification. After that, a re-electrification scenario of future energy development is designed, in which share of power generation in total primary energy consumption (TPED) and share of electricity in total final consumption (TFC) of energy exceed 66% and 40% each in 2050.
