That's a really interesting/informative link you have.
Some highlights are:
- Energy use per capita has been declining since 2000
- Overall energy use has been basically flat since 2000
- Essentially, coal is being replaced by gas, almost 1:1. Lump both together and their relative share of the market is pretty stable.
- Solar went from 0.3 to 2.8% in the last 10 years, wind from 0.3% to 4.2% in the last 20 years. 7% wind/solar isn't world-leading but getting from basically 0 to 7% in 20 years is significant movement.
