+======Electrification======
+=====Summary=====
+Electrification is experiencing faster-than-expected growth, driven by improving technologies and reduced adoption barriers. Environmental concerns and customer preferences for low-carbon solutions are also driving the shift towards electricity-dominated energy markets. However, achieving electrification goals requires major infrastructural changes and the implementation of storage solutions like batteries. Success will be enhanced as society becomes more urbanized and digitally connected, increasing the demand for electricity to power digital systems. With the complexity of energy demands, flexibility in energy solutions becomes crucial.
