The pie charts show the energy generation based on the type of fuel in Florida in 2007, with predictions for 2027.
As can be seen in the charts, there is expected to be an upward trend in the rate of natural gas and nuclear, whereas the remaining fuel types are predicted to follow the opposite trend.
The amount of energy generated by natural gas in 2007 stood at 38, 8%, while the figure for the energy generated from natural gas over a 20-year period will be slightly higher, at 54, 4%. Similarly, the percentage of energy generated by nuclear in 2027 will be 15, 9%, which was 4% higher than the rate of energy generated from nuclear in the year 2007.
The amount of energy generated by renewables was 2. 1% in 2007, after 20 years, the energy generation based on renewables is expected to go down minimally to 1. 5% in 2027. Energy production from coal in 2007 was 29. 3%, by the year 2027, the percentage of coal is predicted to decrease slightly by one-fifth, at 23. 7%. In 2010, the proportion of energy generated by other fuel types was 11. 1%, over a period of 20 years, it is anticipated that other fuel types will see a significant decrease to 3. 4% in 2027. In 2027, energy production from oil is assumed to decrease steadily to 1. 1%, which was 5. 6% lower than the amount of the energy generation based on oil in 2007.
