| The Charts below show UK and USA energy consumption in 2000 and 2006 |
The given bar charts elucidate changes
in energy consumption patterns in UK and the USA from 2000 to 2006.
It can be clearly observed that in
2000, pattern of reliance fuels for energy production in both the country was
almost similar, as far as the reliance on various sources is concerned, though
the percentage and amount varied a little. Both the countries heavily relied on
oil and coal, the percentage of use of these materials was higher in the US,
above 35% and 35% in comparison to above 25% and 30% respectively though gas atomic
power and other renewable sources were used more in Britain.
From 2000 to 2006, the pattern of dependence
on the fuels underwent a seas change. While UK shifted to use of gas, followed
by oil - use of other renewable sources also saw a rise, in the USA oil
continued to be widely used, followed by gas.
Quite notably use of coal decreased significantly,
by approximately 10%. Similarly, use of
nuclear power also declined.
