"When we electrify our energy systems, a magical thing happens: large
inefficiencies vanish. As the International Energy Agency puts it:
“Electrification is efficiency”.
In a decarbonised world, our final energy demand is much lower than it is
today. A study by the Oxford Professor Nick Eyre suggests it’s about 40% lower.
This is shown in the chart below. It plots global final energy demand today
compared to a ‘post-transition’ energy system where suitable sectors are
electrified, and the rest is fuelled by hydrogen.
Electricity demand does increase – from 110 to 189 EJ, but total energy
demand drops from 416 to 247 exajoules (EJ)."
