The line graph illustrates the changes in different types of energy consumed in the USA over 50 years from 1980 to 2008
together with
 the predicted to 2030.
Overall
, the consumption of five fuels shows a general upward trend during 50 years, except
hydropower
, which will remain the same in 2030 compared to 1980. Petrol and oil are the major energy sources since 1980
while
hydropower
 will be the least important fuel in the future. The major fuels were petrol and oil, natural
gas
, and coal in 1980, which were approximately consumed 16 quadrillion
units
, 20 quadrillion
units
 and 35 quadrillion
units
 respectively. Petrol and oil show the most sharply increase trend, which will rise by about 13
q
units
 to reach 48
q
units
.
While
 coal and natural
gas
 grow quite slowly and intersect many times. At the beginning of the record, coal was slightly higher than natural
gas
 for around 4
q
units
. But after the
last
 time intersection in 2013, coal will take over natural
gas
 reaching 30
q
units
.
In contrast
, the trend of nuclear, solar/wind, and
hydropower
 are unobvious. Nuclear and solar/wind will slightly climb within 5
q
units
 expecting to about 4 and 7
q
units
 in 2030.
However
, the consumption of
hydropower
 will be basically unchanged in 50 years, which will
finally
 become the least-used fuel.
