Electricity is an important foundation of modern society and the utility industry，is an important component of the energy industry，and is closely related to economic growth. In 2014，world economic growth rate was 2.6%. Within this rate，the EU countries and Japan and other developed countries were still in the economic downturn. But the economic recovery happened in the US. As for China，economic growth remained a relatively stable performance and by contrast those emerging economies such as Brazil，India and Russia showed differentiation situation. Affected by the macroeconomic environment，the overall supply and demand situation in the global electricity production and total consumption showed a more stable trend. And the growth is slowing down. To be specific，the total consumption of electricity production declined slightly in developed countries. China’s total electricity supply and demand however has gone up，and electricity supply and demand pattern in emerging economies diverged too. In addition，there were also other features in electricity industry which are increased investment in clean energy power，stable development of the nuclear power industry，increased investment in smart grid，fastened process of the EU electricity market integration and of course the accelerating expansion of China’s overseas investment and mergers.
