The latest data shows that the cumulative month-over-month (MoM) growth rate of China's secondary industry electricity consumption in Q2 2026 fell sharply to -2.1724%, a significant reversal from the previous value of 4.8815%, breaking below the zero line. Although high-tech and equipment manufacturing delivered impressive year-over-year growth, weak demand in traditional energy-intensive industries such as steel and cement has become the main factor dragging down the short-term MoM growth momentum of electricity consumption.
