No, it is a substantial amount of primary energy consumption. And as it is used with way more efficiency, the effective use of electricity is even more substantial.

Electricity is shifting away from fossil fuels and towards renewables; and as transportation and other sectors are on the verge of electrification, electricity will become ever more important.
