The bar charts compare how much wind energy was produced in four countries – India, Denmark, Germany and the United States – from 1985 to 2000. Overall, as time went by, the amount of energy generated increased, with the US dominating easily in almost all periods.
The most noticeable aspect of the chart is that the United States harnessed wind to put out the highest volume of energy among the four countries. A closer look at the data reveals that the figures accounted for 1200, just over 1600 (a peak), and 1600 megawatts, in 1985, 1990 and 1995, correspondingly. However, in 2000, there was a slight fall in the volume of its energy output, interestingly, losing a rank to Denmark that easily outproduced every other country with slightly over 1600 megawatts.
Another prominent feature is that the production in India and Germany followed a similar pattern of increase, starting from relatively low megawatts of 200 and 400, in 1985, to 400 and well over 600, in 1990, respectively. Not surprisingly, the countries saw a considerable rise in energy generation in later years, with figures of both equalling at 800, in 1995, while that of India climbing to 1200 and Germany to roughly 900 in 2000.
