The pie charts below show units of electricity production by fuel source Australia and France in 1980 and 2000.

The bar graphs demonstrate the units of electricity generated utilizing fuel in Australia and France respectively. In fact, the circle charts denote a comparison between 1980 and 2000. As a whole, an upsurge can be detected in the amount of power produced in 2000 than in the eighties in both territories. Most importantly, Australia utilized coal as the key source of electricity generation for the entire time span.

Moreover

, in 2000, France sought nuclear energy to obtain power. During the eighties, a fifth of fossil gas,

as well as

, hydropower contributed to fulfil the requirements of the Australians.

On the contrary

, the demand for fracked gas,

along with

oil dwindled in the subsequent years, meanwhile, a magnitude of coal was employed for production purposes. In early times in France, coal, natural hydrocarbons and oil assisted in generating electricity at one quarter approximately, whilst energy was created through nuclear fusion and water at 15% and 5% respectively. In 2000, the French nation dwindled the usage of water as a source,

besides

desisting natural gas to be deployed to beget energy,

whereas

the use of atomic power was boosted to a great extent.
