The chart illustrates the projected changes in energy source usage from 2019 to 2040, measured in million tonnes of oil equivalent (MTOE). Notably, 'Other Renewables' such as solar and wind are expected to see a dramatic increase of over 300%, rising from 300 MTOE in 2019 to 1,300 MTOE by 2040. This surge underscores the growing shift towards sustainable energy solutions. 'Modern Bioenergy' is also projected to nearly double, indicating a significant transition from traditional biomass sources like wood and charcoal, which are expected to decline. Nuclear energy shows a modest increase, reflecting ongoing debates and investments in nuclear technology. Meanwhile, 'Solid Biomass' is anticipated to decrease, suggesting a move away from less efficient and more polluting energy sources. 'Hydro' energy is expected to grow steadily, maintaining its role as a reliable renewable energy source. These trends highlight a broader global movement towards cleaner and more sustainable energy practices, driven by technological advancements and policy shifts aimed at reducing carbon emissions and combating climate change. The data suggests a future energy landscape that is increasingly dominated by renewables, with significant implications for energy policy, economic investment, and environmental impact.
