The figure illustrates how much energy was used in 2008, also the pie chart will be anticipated the amount of energy sources in 2030 in Australia.
Overall, it can be seen that in the year 2008, the highest proportion of energy sources was allocated to the coal source, and the least for solar energy. While in the year 2030, it is predicted that the oil source will overtake the share of coal source and will stand first among all energy sources.
To be specific, In the year 2008, the coal source ranked first among seven categories, with the percentage of 39%. While the share of oil and gas sources was contributed slightly lesser by a narrow margin of nearly 7% and 16%, respectively. Additionally, other energy sources, namely hydro, wind, solar, and variety of other items, was comprised of lesser than 5% for each one.
Conversely, in the year 2030, it is anticipated that the consumption of oil sources will increase to 35% and will stand at the first place. Then, the share of the gas source will soar to 32% and will be responsible for the second highest proportion. In contrast, the coil source will plummet to 27%. In addition, another significant prediction changing is that the geothermal sources will be replaced by the solar energy, which will accounts for 4.30%.
