, in the future , they will increase until ending at about 50 quadrillion. In addition
, in the initial year, the figure of
coal was about 17 quadrillion, but it will creep up in the future.
When it comes to natural gas, it started at 20 quadrillions in 1980, which was higher than nuclear, solar/wind and hydropower about 4 times. Change preposition
for
Nevertheless
, it will be stable in the future. Moreover
,the information on nuclear,solar/wind and hydropower was started at the same number. But between the three of them, nuclear is always higher than the other.Submitted by jaehee0203.jh on
