The table above is revealing data regarding the net electricity generation and the nmber of power plants in the United State in 2005 and 2015.
Firstly, the first table is demonstarting the net generation by energy source. In 2005, the coal reaches to 2,012,873 while in 2015 decreased to 1,352,398. Then we got petroleum with a massive raise in 2005 reaching up to 760,960 while in 2015 we can see a significant decline to reaching 28,249. Further, is shown the natural gas in 2005 reaching 760,960 and in 2015 has the biggest high peak to reaching 1,333,482. The nuclear in 2005 reached to 781,986 while in 2015 we can see a rise to 797,178. Lastly, the conventional Hydroelectric in 2005 reached up to 279,321 while in 2015 decline to 249.080.
The second table is revealing the number of electric power industry power plants between 2005 and 2015. In 2005 the Coal reached 619, the petroleum achieve 1133, the natural gas reached 1664 while the nuclear declined to 66. However, in 2015, the coal reaches 427 which is big decline cmpares to 2005. The petroleum suprusingly is maintaining to 1,082 while the natural gar has slightly increased compares to 2005 with reaching 1779. The nuclear maintains to 62 while also the conventional hydrolectric is steady compares to 2005.
