Can you explain the 'not looking good' part?
I see in 2002, Gas+Oil+Coal+Nuclear = 450 TWh. Then in 2021 this amounts to 262.98 TWh.
So both nuclear and fossil fuel went down quite a bit.
Looking just at the fossil fuel number, they went down by 96 TWh during that period. Seems like a significant win to me.
Also for a reality check have a look at electricitymap.org when there is no wind and when it’s the night, I don’t see how ones could keep a straight face thinking they are doing good, this is the mix of the future for our cities.
