The line graph illustrates how much different kinds of electricity produced in France from 1980 to 2012.
Overall, there was a increase in the amount of reneweables and Nuclear power produce, while a drop can be seen in the figures for Thermal and Hydroelectric.In addition, nuclear consistently had the highest figures during the period shown.
The production of nuclear power in France started at about 70 TW-h, after which it experienced a substantial growth, before ending the period at north of 400 TW-h . Conversely, the figure for Hydroelectric fluctuated in range from 60 TW-h to 70 TW-H in the first 20 years, and a final saw a slight drop from 60M in 2000 to almost 50 TW-H in 2010.
About 120 TW-H Thermal was produced in France in 1980, with a considerable decline to shy of 50 TW-H in 1995 and maintained this level towards the end of the period. Not until the year 2000 was renewables power produced in France, and the figure for this type of electricity increased slightly to approximately 40 TW-H at the end of the period.
