The graph depicts production levels of the main fuels in the UK between the years 1981-2000, with energy units measuring from 0-160.
Initially, it is seen that the fuel petroleum has been the most prominent compared to other fuels throughout all of the years. This great demand for petroleum tells that this fuel is really inportant and needed in the everday lives of UK citizens. The demand for petroleum started at only around 90 energy units in 1981, stayed constant at 140 enrgy units for 4 years, had a decline in 1991 and rose again over the years.
Secondly, coal became the second important or demanded fuel starting at 80 energy units in 1981. This level of energy units started to take a rapid decline after just 2 years , splitting the energy level in half and then rising again in that same year ,where it then stayed constant over the next five years before its decline again.
Thirdly, the natual gas started off as the least produced fuel at just 40 energy units in 1981. In a few years, natural gas and coal’s production levels were similar due to coal’s first decline in 1994. However, this didn’t last for long when natural gas soon was no longer the least produced feul and it passed coal’s second decline in 1991.
In conclusion, petoleum has always been the most produced fuel in UK ,while coal and natural gas each had there phases where they were both the highest and lowest.
