In the electricity grid specifically they peaked around 2006 and are 15% below 1990 due to switching from coal to gas and introducing renewables

That's one of the most interesting links I've seen in a long time (regardless of subject).

Thanks for sharing because it puts things in perspective much easier due to the data it sourced.

If you’re convinced by the materials shared, you may want to consider editing your original content. It’s currently the most-upvoted comment, and is materially incorrect.

I'm unable to edit.

I did though indicate "please correct me if I'm wrong", in my original post.

Which led to this discussion below that I'm sure people then read (like your comment on this sub-post)
