The line graph illustrates the energy consumption by fuel in quadrillion units in the United States between 1930 and 2030.
Overall, the consumption of non-renewable fuels increases slightly over time, whereas the consumption of renewable fuels remains nearly constant. Additionally, It can be seen that the consumption of non-renewable fuels is drastically greater bigger than that of the renewable fuels.
For non-renewable fuels, the consumption of petrol and oil had some considerable ups and downs around 35 quadrillions between 1980 and 1985. Nevertheless, after this period the consumption has been increasing dramatically, standing at 50 quadrillions in 2030. For coal consumption, there has been a slight increase from 15 quadrillions to just over 30 quadrillions between 1980 and 2030. In addition, the consumption of natural gas and nuclear energy has remained stable around 22 quadrillions for natural gas and 5 quadrillions for nuclear energy.
For renewable fuels, the consumption of solar and wind based fuels has been keeping constant at just over 5 quadrillions during the whole period. The same behaviour occurs for the consumption of hydropower, stabilizing at standing at stable around 2 quadrilions. In general, oil and petrol is the non-renewable fuel that most people consume, whereas renewable fuels have remained constant since 1980.
