In 2015, fossil fuels accounted for the largest proportion of energy capacity at 64% and this figure is expected to decrease substantially to 44% by 2040. Other renewables, which made up 23% in 2015, is projected to experience a slight drop to 21% in 2040. Similarly, as for nuclear energy constituted 6% in 2015, while this figure is forecast to drop, with an anticipated fall of only 1% by 2040.
In contrast, wind and solar energy sources are predicted to grow significantly. Solar accounted for only 2% in 2015, but it is estimated to rise ninefold at 18% by 2040. It is predicted that wind energy source will rise significantly, with expected increase in the proportion of energy capacity reaching 12% by 2040.
