decreased from 24% to 11%; of gas—from 11% to 4%, and of wind power—from 7%
to 4%. Usage of other sources for electricity generation almost has not changed.
The United States have decreased usage of coal from 50% to 30%; increased
usage of gas from 19% to 34% and renewables without hydro—from 3% to 7%.
However, nuclear and hydro power have been left on the same level, that is, 20%
and 7%, respectively, which is also a good trend (Fig. 3.3D).
