In Australia, units of coal was 50 in 1980 and it rose substantially to 130 in 2000. Hydro Power units demonstrated a growth of 16 over 20 years. In contrast, oil and natural gas declined sharply to only 2 each units in 2000.
In France, nuclear power went up dramatically from 15 units in 1980 to 126 units in 2000, becoming the dominant source. Coal and oil was 25 and 20 units in 1980, respectively, they both stood at 25 units in 2000. However, natural gas and hydro power dropped significantly to 2 units each.
