Image: 20260419 Scaling up of electricity generation, by source

Description: Chart showing how various sources of electricity have scaled up, after reaching an initial level of production Data source for Version 1: Rangelova, Kostantsa; Shah, Ruchita; Petrovich, Beatrice; Assan, Sabina; Butler-Sloss, Sam. Marking five years of Ember with five charts on the global energy transition. Ember Energy (13 August 2025). Archived from the original on 15 November 2025. Ember credits: Wind and solar generation data from Ember's yearly electricity data. Nuclear, gas, coal and hydro data from Pinto et al. (2023). This graphic is based on a chart by Nat Bullard https://www.nathanielbullard.com/presentations. Data only shown until the point where each source generated just over 2,000 TWh. The archive https://archive.vn/DmlRs in the archive.today family, though deprecated in en.wp, stores the charts better than archive.org. Uploader created this chart from data taken directly from the first chart in cited source, where data traces intersected the 2000 TWh line. It is apparent that the vertical axis' years and the horizontal axis' TWh/year have a reciprocal relationship. Technical note: most SVG code was automatically generated by the "Horizontal bar charts" spreadsheet linked at User:RCraig09/Excel to XML for SVG. Additions and adjustments were made in a text editor.
