The pie chart illustrates the proportion of different energy sources used by a North American country in 2020.
Overall, the country relied heavily on fossil fuels, with natural gas and coal together accounting for well over half of total energy consumption. In contrast, renewable energy sources individually contributed relatively small shares, although collectively they formed a noticeable minority.
Natural gas was the dominant energy source, representing 40% of total usage. This was followed by coal at 25%, meaning that fossil fuels alone made up 65% of the energy mix. Nuclear power was the third most significant source, supplying 15% of the country’s energy, which was substantially lower than natural gas but still three times higher than any single renewable source.
Renewable energy sources – including hydroelectric power, wind, solar, and biomass – each accounted for 5%. While none of these sources individually exceeded a modest share, together they comprised 20% of overall energy consumption, exceeding the contribution of nuclear power. This suggests some diversification towards cleaner energy, although dependence on traditional sources remained dominant.
In summary, despite the presence of renewable and nuclear energy, the country’s energy structure in 2020 was still largely driven by fossil fuels, particularly natural gas, with renewables playing a secondary role.
