Thanks @time2roll.
Renewables may even be understated as I believe in-home solar use is included as there is no way to capture the data unless the power companies are metered and they are allowed to tap into it for measurements.
You folks don't even know what your looking at, other than it's pretty colors on a chart LOL.
This is the telling tale when you look at it all together.
Fossil Fuels 63.5%
Nuclear 18.3%
Renewable 17.1%
Of the renewables, Hrdro power is flat and will never increase much if any, see many dams being built? Solar and wind get a whopping 8.2% of total.
Going by the first chart posted, renewable's gained roughly 300 billion KWH above what they were in 1998, since 2010.
At that rate they'll catch up to Fossil Fuel by 2099, maybe.
