The image presents a line graph displaying data over time from 1971 to 2012 across six countries, with a vertical axis labeled from 0 to 25 at intervals of 5, and a horizontal axis with marked years 1971, 1976, 1981, 1986, 1991, 1996, 2001, 2006, and 2011. The lines represent: Finland (dashed with triangles: starting at ~24 in 1971, dipping to ~20.7 in 1973, rising to ~21.5 in 1975, ~19.5 in 1978, ~18.3 in 1980, ~19.8 in 1981, ~21.6 in 1982, ~20.1 in 1985, ~17.9 in 1986, reaching a low of ~16.4 in 1988, ~16.8 in 1990, ~17.8 in 1993, ~18.6 in 1996, ~19.3 in 1999, ~20.3 in 2001, ~20.8 in 2003, ~20.3 in 2005, ~21.7 in 2007, ~22.7 in 2010, and ending at ~23.3 in 2012); Denmark (solid with circles: ~15 in 1971, ~12.3 in 1975, ~13.5 in 1980, ~11.9 in 1982, ~12.4 in 1985, ~10.3 in 1987, ~10.8 in 1988, ~13.3 in 1990, ~14.4 in 1991, ~13.0 in 1993, ~12.1 in 1995, ~12.8 in 1998, ~13.9 in 2001, ~14.9 in 2003, ~15.8 in 2005, ~16.4 in 2007, ~17.2 in 2010, and ~18.2 in 2012); France (dotted with squares: ~8.1 in 1971, ~10.2 in 1975, ~9.4 in 1980, ~8.6 in 1982, ~8.1 in 1985, ~8.1 in 1988, ~8.9 in 1991, ~9.5 in 1993, ~10.1 in 1995, ~10.6 in 1998, ~11.1 in 2001, ~11.6 in 2003, ~12.5 in 2005, ~13.0 in 2007, ~13.5 in 2010, and ~14.1 in 2012); Germany (dash-dotted with diamonds: ~5.3 in 1971, ~5.3 in 1973, ~5.3 in 1976, ~5.3 in 1980, ~5.3 in 1982, ~4.6 in 1985, ~4.9 in 1988, ~5.2 in 1990, ~6.0 in 1993, ~6.8 in 1995, ~7.5 in 1998, ~8.4 in 2001, ~9.1 in 2003, ~9.9 in 2005, ~10.9 in 2007, ~12.1 in 2010, and ~13.3 in 2012); United States (dashed with x: ~2.1 in 1971, ~2.6 in 1976, ~3.7 in 1980, ~2.9 in 1985, ~3.7 in 1990, ~4.7 in 1995, ~5.3 in 1998, ~6.5 in 2001, ~7.0 in 2003, ~7.8 in 2005, ~8.7 in 2007, ~9.7 in 2010, and ~11.0 in 2012); and United Kingdom (solid with pluses: ~0.8 in 1971, ~1.2 in 1976, ~1.7 in 1980, ~1.9 in 1985, ~2.5 in 1990, ~3.2 in 1995, ~3.9 in 2001, ~4.3 in 2003, ~5.0 in 2007, and ~6.0 in 2012).

The line graph compares six countries’ proportions of renewable energy as a share of the total over a 40-year period between 1971 and 2011.
Overall, Finland recorded the highest shares over the period, while the UK stood the lowest. Additionally, most of the countries saw an increase except for Finland.
At the beginning of the period Finland and Denmark had the highest percentages at 25% and 15%, respectively. Finland then fluctuated but generally declined, hitting its lowest point of about 16% in around 1988, but it returned steadily to nearly its initial level at the end. Meanwhile, Denmark fluctuated between 10-15% until 2002 before rising slowly to 18% in 2011.
France and Germany were broadly stable at around 8% and 5% between 1971 and 1991. After 1991, both countries experienced an increase, but Germany rose slightly more quickly, nearly leveling with France at about 14% in 2011. The US and the UK started from a similar level of 1-2% and grew gradually in the following years. However, the gap between them widened after 2000, with the US and the UK at 12% and 6%, respectively, in 2011.
