The provided chart depicts the amount of wind energy generated in India, Denmark, Germany, and USA over a 15-year period (1985-2000). The figures are also measured in megawatt (MW).
At first glance, it is unmissable that the United States dominated the chart over the years with the largest amount of energy produced, only to be surmounted by Denmark in the last year period. Additionally, every country had its production figures rising steadily over 15 years, except for the USA with a declining trend since 1990.
When it comes to India and Germany, several features are noticeable throughout the years. Both countries started off with 200 and 400 MW respectively. While the former rose to 400 MW after 5 years, the latter increased to approximately 650 MW. Other than that, in 1995, India and Germany reached an equal number of 800 MW. The status then changed drastically in 2000 as India surpassed the other country with 1200 MW of energy produced compared to only 900 MW.
Regarding the two other countries, Denmark and the United States, they both began with 200 MW and 1200 MW respectively in 1985. After 5 years, Denmark saw a rise to just over 400 MW while the USA reached the peak of 1650 MW of wind energy. The trend began to reverse for the United States as the country experienced a 50MW decline in 1995. Meanwhile, Denmark kept the figures rising exponentially, reaching 1200 MW in the same year. Ultimately, Denmark outshone America in 2000, with 1650 MW of wind energy generated, compared to 1500 MW of the USA.
