The given chart provides data about energy consumption since 1978 with a predicition until 2038 in the UK. Overall, pertol and oil were the highest category and according to projection it is going to rise. Coal and natural gas maintain their second positions with growth, including some fluctuations. The lowest units were shown by nuclear, solar and wind and hydropower consumption with a stable trend.
As can be seen, at the beginning of the period, in 1978, the petrol and oil using started with 35 quadrillion units; after some fluctuations between 1978 and 1993 it had steady growth and reached approximately 42 quadrillion units in 2011. Focusing on the plan of consumption, it will continue increase until 2038.
The next leading energy types started at almost the same level, 20 quadrillion units for natural gas and just over 15 quadrillion units for coal. Coal experienced a rise after 2003 and according to the projection it will have increase until the end of period. Natural gas consumption had some fluctuations and will levelled off at 25 quadrillion units after 2018. Turning to the lowest metrics, nuclear, solar and wind and hydropower it started with the same point at roughly 3 quadrillion units and all of them will have a plateau after 2013 with a leading of nuclear energy.
