Band 6+: Task Description The pie charts below show the proportions of energy production from different sources in a country in 2000 and 2010. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant. 2000: Coal: 30% Gas: 25% Nuclear: 20% Renewables: 15% Oil: 10% 2010: Coal: 35% Gas: 30% Nuclear: 10% Renewables: 20% Oil: 5%

The pie charts illustrates the percentage of energy produced from five different sectors, namely coal, gas, nuclear, renewables and oil in a country during 2000 and 2010.

Overall, coal produced the most energy compared to other sources while the least amount of energy was generated by oil. There was a rise in energy production from coal ,gas and renewables whereas nuclear and oil faced a decline in production during 2010.

Beginning with coal, the production was at 30 percent in 2000, which was increased by 5% in the next decade. In contrast, nuclear sources produced only 10% in 2010, declining by exactly a tenth from it’s previous rate. Similar to nuclear, oil also faced a significant drop in production during 2010 which was exactly the half of 10% in 2000.

Also it is worth pointing out that gas and renewables witnessed exactly the same 5% increase in production within the span of ten years. Most noticeably, during 2010 it can be said coal and gas were the major source of energy with 65% contribution combined ,whereas other three minor sources only contributed 35% of production in the country.
