The graph below gives information from a 2008 report about consumption of energy in the USA since 1980 with projections until 2030

The line graph delineates data from a 2008 report regarding energy consumption in the USA since 1980 with predictions until 2030.

Overall, fossil fuel usage has experienced an increase since 1980 with estimations of even more consumption of these. By contrast, cleaner energy sources have witnessed lower figures of consumption with expectations of similar trends.

Particularly, the consumption of the fossil fuels rose steadily since 1980, with the petrol and oil starting at 35 quadrillion units, fluctuating until 2000, and then grew gradually with a projection of over 45 quadrillion units by 2030. Coal followed a similar pattern, starting from 15 quadrillion units and it is anticipated to reach at around 30 by 2030. Natural gas consumption underwent fluctuations and it is envisaged to level off at about 24 quadrillion units by 2015.

Regarding cleaner fuels, they all began beneath 5 quadrillion units. However, nuclear energy went up slightly with a forecast of reaching just under 10 quadrillion units by 2030. Solar and wind energy fluctuated negligibly and are likely to end at nearly over 5 in 2030, whereas hydropower saw a downward trend and will remain relatively stable until 2030.
