From 20q and 15q respectively in 1980, gas showed a small fall and coal a gradual increased, with the two fuels equal between 1985 and 1990. There were fluctuations between the two fuel energy sources since 1990 to 2016. The experts predicted the coal will increase to 45q, while natural gas will remain stable to 23q in 2030.

Furthermore, in 1980, fuel energy source nuclear, solar/wind and hydropower were equal at 3q. Nuclear had risen to 6q, and solar/wind to 4q, whereas hydropower had fallen back to the 1980 figure in 2010. It is expected to maintain this level until 2030, while others will slightly increase in 2030.
