The linear graphs demonstrate the usage of different sources of energy in the united states since 1980, with some prophecies until 2030, as per a 2008 report.
It can be clearly seen that petrol and oil were the chief sources, with 35qu in 1980 and then experiencing some fluctuations until 1995 and increasing by now. Besides, as per prognostications, the usage of petrol and oil will grow considerably, with 47qu in 2030. Furthermore, the usages of coal and natural gas were close together, with 17qu and 20qu in 1980 respectively. Since 1980, coal and natural gas have risen moderately, and in the future coal will continue its trend and reach 30qu, whereas natural gas will reach a plateau at 24qu. By contrast, hydro power is the least practical mode of energy, with 3qu in 1980 and 2qu in 2030. Nevertheless, nuclear and solar/wind are not that popular compared with the fossil fuels, in 1980, their consumptions were both 3qu, and throughout the time, nuclear energy overtook solar/wind energy, and in the future their usages will be approximately constant.
Overall, not unlike the past, in the future, the fossil fuels will be the prime source of energy in the USA.
