Аннотация: The article carries out a general analysis of electric power technologies in industrial production in the course of this study. It substantiates the importance of the electric power industry in the world economy. The most developed directions of electricity generation are considered. Their peculiarities and characteristic features Показать полностьюare highlighted. The article gives a general analysis of the structure of world electricity production by types of power plants. It was revealed on the basis of this analysis that the largest volume of electricity generation is produced at coal fired power stations. A negative impact of the operation of coal-fired thermal power plants on the environment is described. The dynamics of world investments in renewable energy sources, as well as world GDP statistics and the dynamics of world electricity production according to regions are considered. The article highlights such regions as China, Europe and the United States, which are leaders in both production and consumption of electricity. They receive the largest investments for the development of technologies for generating electricity from renewable energy resources. As a result of the study, the assumptions were made about the existing environmental problems in some regions leading in the production and consumption of electricity. Also the article speculates about the existing need to replace less environmentally friendly energy sources with more environmentally friendly energy resources. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
