It. Is a dynamic eco system quickly changing away from oil gas and coal. Cost per MW is lower then coal so coal plants are closing. As volume grows wind and solar decrease in price. As grid batteries become cost effective the return on investment for solar and wind jumps. When EV batteries are used for grid storage the trend is stronger, faster.
So the static snapshot should not drive decisions, rather will the eco system drive to 100% clean energy (in terms of production) within 20 years.
