    Can you please link sources?
    I’m interested in the total TWh of electric energy generated (now and then), because they may very well release more CO2 in total at 55% now compared to 70% 10 years ago.

        Thanks for following that up!
        At least the total coal energy use did stay almost the same due to the reduced share of it.
        It’s not the win one could’ve hoped for, but it’s not horrible either.
