Utilities Industry Statistics
U.S. utilities posted $118 billion in capex in 2022 and still pushed electricity retail sales to 3,940 billion kWh, even as coal generation fell 8% to 828 billion kWh and natural gas supplied 40.3% of the mix. From Texas wind leadership to global LNG and water infrastructure pressures, this page ties power, fuel, and utility economics into one clear snapshot of what is changing fastest.
Power Industry Statistics
Global electricity generation hit 2,200 TWh in 2023 while investment surged to $1.2 trillion in clean energy the same year, yet the grid still has to absorb a massive influx of renewables and variable power. Track how capacity additions and reliability metrics collide, from wind and solar buildout to battery growth and transformer and storm interruption realities that determine whether clean power can scale without compromising service.
Electric Industry Statistics
Global solar and wind are scaling fast, with 230 GW of solar PV added in 2022 and wind farms running at a 34 percent average global capacity factor, yet the grid still needs massive investment estimated at $3.5 trillion over the decade. For the U.S., nuclear is still delivering at a 92.2 percent capacity factor in 2023 while industrial power costs land at 10.54 cents per kilowatt hour, revealing how generation mix and performance collide with price pressures and outage realities.
Utility Industry Statistics
With U.S. electricity priced at 15.95 cents per kWh in 2022 and coal’s share sliding to 20%, this page tracks where power supply and costs are actually moving across generation, storage, and grid performance. It also connects the dots to fuel and infrastructure pressures from LNG flows to water system stress, so you can see how reliability, affordability, and efficiency compete in real numbers.
Water Industry Statistics
Water stress is rising across 80% of countries and global water scarcity will still affect 2.4 billion people by 2025, even as 91% of people now have safely managed drinking water services. This page connects the policy fixes and investment reality behind the shift from withdrawals to quality, treatment, reuse, and protection, from zero net gain rules in the UK to 99.9% tap water compliance in Japan and 99% wastewater recycling in the Netherlands.
