The image shows a line graph titled "U.S. Energy Consumption by Fuel (1980-2030)" with data from 1980 to 2007 as history and projected data from 2010 to 2030. The graph displays energy consumption in quadrillion units on the y-axis and time in years on the x-axis. Petrol and Oil consumption starts at approximately 35 quadrillion units in 1980, reaching nearly 45 quadrillion units in 2007 and projected to reach over 50 quadrillion units by 2030. Coal consumption begins at just over 15 quadrillion units, increasing to almost 25 quadrillion units in 2007 and projected at 30 quadrillion units in 2030. Natural Gas consumption starts at around 15 quadrillion units, with a steady increase to 25 quadrillion units in 2007 and projected to continue to about 30 quadrillion units in 2030. Nuclear, Solar/Wind, and Hydropower have significantly lower consumption levels, all starting below 5 quadrillion units in 1980. Nuclear energy shows a gradual increase to approximately 8 quadrillion units by 2007, with a projection of nearly 10 quadrillion units by 2030. Solar/Wind energy sees the most significant projected increase, starting at nearly 0 quadrillion units in 1980, with a slight increase to almost 3 quadrillion units in 2007 and an anticipated surge to 10 quadrillion units by 2030. Hydropower consumption remains relatively stable, starting at just over 2 quadrillion units, with little change by 2007 and a small projected increase to about 4 quadrillion units by 2030.

The given line chart illustrates the quantity of energy consumed by fuel in the USA since 1980, as described in a record from 2008, and provides a forecast until 2030, as well. Overall, the usage of alternative sources of energy will display no significant variation, while combustion-based ones are allegedly going to maintain their increasing trend.
As a matter of fact, a progressive increment with respect to the utilization of coal and petrol/oil can be clearly observed; in addition, their levels of consumption are likely to keep growing in the coming years. Conversely, the reliance on natural gas is probably going to become stable, after having reported several fluctuations over the years.
Only a less notable increase is expected to occur in the future as far as other energetic sources are concerned, such as nuclear power and solar/wind energy. Conversely, water-based fuels are likely going to plateau, or better, to maintain the same trend as after 2010.
