The pie graphic display amount of electricity generation and which main sources used for production in two different countries in 1980 and 2000.

All remaining fuels were shared a small portion. Nuclear power did not used for electricity in this year.
In terms of France, coal and natural gas contribution was the same which is 25 unit in 1980 when oil and nuclear power amounts for electric production was 20 and 15 unit, respectively. Hydro power was just 5 unit. By 2000, nuclear power made up 126 unit of total electricity manufacturing amount. Coal and oil were the same amount which is 25 unit. Besides, hydro power and natural gas amount was just 2 unit in 2000.
