We will see more records as we are now moving into the shoulder months where solar output remains high, but demand is lower than in summer months.
The previous record for battery share of load was set in April.

However, even periods of low demand growth would have not led to substantial fossil fuel falls in the past in India.
The difference now? Record growth in wind and solar generation.

The slow demand growth was caused by temperature differences between 2025 and 2024.
2024 saw record heatwaves push up cooling demand, but 2025 has been much milder. This moderated demand growth, sometimes even dropping below 2024 levels, a rare sight in India's steadily growing power sector.

In India, record solar and wind growth combined with favourable hydro conditions to drive fossil generation down substantially. However, electricity demand increased by just 1.3% compared to a 9% increase in H1-2024.

The first half of 2025 is the continuation of a flattening out of fossil generation in China.
Fossil power has plateaued since early 2024 as solar and wind have been matching or growing faster than electricity demand.

The fall in fossil generation in India and China had slightly different reasons.
In China, low-carbon power growth from solar, wind (and some nuclear) was higher than the increase in electricity demand, despite a small fall in hydro generation. This led to a decline in coal.

The continued rapid growth of solar generation meant that renewables overtook coal for the first time.
Coal generation dipped slightly compared to the first half of 2024, with renewables continuing to grow.

On a global level, wind and solar met and exceeded the growth in electricity demand, particularly as a result of record breaking solar growth.
A fall in hydro negated some of the growth in solar, wind and nuclear, but fossil fuels still saw a small decline.
