The pie charts below show the comparison of different kinds of energy consumption of the UK in two years

The given pie charts illustrate the consumption of

energy

from various sources in the UK in the year 2000 and 2010.

Overall

, it is clear from the charts that coal and

gas

were the main two sources of

energy

,

energy

at 5.0%. In 2010, it is apparent that there was a gradual increase in the consumption of coal,

gas

, solar and other

energy

in the UK. The use of coal was responsible for 31.0%, come after by 30.0% of

gas

, 10.0% of solar and 9.0% of other

energy

.

In contrast

, the use of petrol had decreased to 20.0%.

To conclude

, there was a slight change in the proportion of

energy

consumption in the UK over a 10-year period.
