The bar diagram offers a comparative analysis of the amount of money invested in sustainable energy in the United Kingdom during the period from 2008 to 2015.
A general overview reveals that over the given time frame, England’s wind power constituted the largest amount of investment; meanwhile, the smallest figure contributed to energy intelligent technologies.
Particularly, between 2008 and 2009, England did not invest in solar power. In 2008, the total budget was under 5 billion pounds and haft of the investment was distributed to wind energy. Energy-based technologies accounted for a small minority, just under 1 billion pounds. Similarly, wind energy was continuously allocated with a commendable 95% of the total investment, over 5 billion pounds. Energy-driven techs and other energy sources accounted for the remaining 5%.
From 2010 to 2015, the United Kingdom commenced investing in solar power and the observed information of each year was starkly different. Particularly, in 2010, England still invested a significant amount of money in wind power, just over 5 billion pounds, and the other sources of energy constituted a minimal figure. In stark contrast, in 2011, this trend altered, with nearly haft of the total investment was spent on solar power, at 3 billion pounds, being similar with the figure for other energy. Wind power made up roughly 2 billion pounds. However, this figure experienced a dramatic increase from 2 billion in 2011 to about 11.5 billion in 2015. Meanwhile, although there was a considerable investment in 2011, solar power remained stable until 2013, before rising to 4 billion in 2014 and then decreasing to 3 billion in 2015. Energy-based tech and other power were stable over the given period.
