The pie chart illustrates a comparison of different sources of energy manufacturing in France from 1995 to 2005.
Overall, the usage of gas and coal as a energy source maintained its popularity, whereas petro slowly lost its notable percentage to nuclear energy stations and other methods over time.
Gas, coal and petro made up almost 90 percent of production in 1995. Gas and coal were both used approximately 30 percent at that time. Nuclear energy usage was slightly over 5 percent. Other methods were not prevalent at that time, but still a small amount of 5 percent were used.
Natural gas and coal consumption for energy production saw a minimal increase by one percent in 2005. Together they made more than half of whole manufacturing Using petro as a source lost its credibility, thus decreased 10 percent, while nuclear energy rose slightly to just over 10 percent. Other methods thrived and doubled to slightly below 10 percent.
