The pie diagram shows energy sources in Australia in 2008 and predictions for 2030.
Overview, coal, oil and gas account for a big part in producing energy. Also, Australia predicted it will still mainly continue to depend on non-renewable sources after 22 years. Moreover, renewable resources whether there has been growth, especially, appearing of geothermal. It is expected to account for a small part in the total.
On the one hand, for oil, coal and gas. Comparing the 2008 data table, coal constitutes a large percentage of 39 %, followed by oil with 32.5% and gas is 22.9%. Describe the trend of coal in 2030, increasing slightly 35.5%, becoming the most dominant of energy resources. Describe the trend of gas in 2030, it supplies down to 22.3 %, becoming energy sources third used in the kinds of fossil fuel. Describing the trend of oil in 2030, it was a significant increase of 32 %, accounting for nearly ⅓ of total consumption output.
On the other hand, for solar, wind, others, especially, the appearance of geothermal. Firstly, comparing data in 2008, solar, wind and hydro power, respectively only accounts for 0.8%, 0.3% and 0.2%, and others accounts for 4.3%. Describe the trend of solar, wind, and hydropower in 2030, wind and hydro power increase 0.9% and 0.7%, and solar not included on forecast. Describe the trend of others in 2030, and the appearance of geothermal , it only accounts for 4.3% of total consumption output in 2030. Also, it is equal to the category “others” that the rate is unchanged.
