This statistic shows the world power mix of fuels between 2010 and 2030, by case. In a climate response scenario, it is estimated that coal will represent 30 percent of the total global power production.
Global power mix of fuels outlook between 2010 and 2030, by scenario*
* According to the source, the same power mix was assumed in both the supply expansion and productivity response cases. End demand varies between the two cases - the first number shown on the 100 percent
line referst to supply expansion, the second number to productivity response. ** Other renewable energy includes dedicated biomass, geothermal and marine.
In the supply expansion/ productivity response case, annual investment in the generation of renewable energy in 2030 is 30 to 50 percent higher than 2010 levels.
In the climate response case, total electricity generation is 18 percent lower in 2030 than in the supply expansion scenario.
The abbreviation CCS stands for carbon capture and storage.
