The graph below gives information from a 2008 report about consumption of energy in the USA since 1980 with projections until 2030. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and making comparisons where relevant.

The graph below gives information from a 2008 report about consumption of energy in the USA since 1980 with projections until 2030. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and making comparisons where relevant.
The graph below visually illustrates the usage of energy in the USA since 1980 with predictions for 2030 that were reported in 2008.The numbers were represented at quadrillion units.
Overall
, it can be seen that Petrol and Oil had the highest consumption all the time
while
Hydropower had the lowest. Petrol and oil started at a high number which was 35,
then
it kept rising and was projected to reach 50 in 2030. The second was Coal, which stood approximately at 17 and was predicted to be almost double. Natural and gas had similar numbers with the former, which initiated at 20 and slightly rose to around 25.
Next,
there were three groups that stood at about 4, which were Nuclear, Solar/wind, and Hydropower. Nuclear was projected to be the highest among these three which was about 7. The others remained to have a very small number and
