Both figures are Ember annual statistics. The fall comes from the change in what Bulgaria burns and generates, not from generating less. https://worldpowermonitor.com/facts/2026-09-08/ https://worldpowermonitor.com/facts/2026-09-08/ Tue, 08 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT world Wind and solar together supplied 17.3% of the world's electricity in 2025, up from 4.5% in 2015.
