• Paragraph 1

The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2000 and 2005. As can be seen, the total energy consumption in 2005 was 170 million tons. So it was higher than in 2000 (117 million tons). In 2005, Nuclear and Hydroelectricity made up the largest amount of this figure (75 million tons). This was followed by the consumption of petroleum (50 million tons). Both of them were higher than in 2000. However, coal decreased the amount of the energy consumption (from 57 million tons in 2000 to 50 million tons).

• Paragraph 2

​The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2000 and 2005. It's clear that the total energy consumption was 287 millions tons in two years. Petroleum made up the largest amount in 2000 (57 million tons) whereas the petroleum consumption was 50 million in 2005. In 2000 the consumption of coal came the second (40 million tons); however this consumption came the third (45 millions tons) in 2005 after the petroleum consumption. And the consumption of Nuclear and Hydroelectricity was 20 million in 2000. Nevertheless, Nuclear and Hydroelectricity consumption was 75 million tons in 2005. In conclusion, the energy consumption in Highland in 2000 is less than that in 2005.

• Paragraph 3

​The chart shows the energy consumption in Highland in 2000 and 2005. As can be seen, there was an upward trend in the consumption of coal, nuclear and hydroelectricity. It was a sharp decrease in the use of petroleum in 2005. The amount of coal used increased by 5 million tons compared with 2000 and the consumption of nuclear & hydroelectricity soared up dramatically by 50 million tons. However, the amount of petroleum consumed in 2005 went down by 50 million tons.

In general, there was a difference in the amount as well as trend of consuming different sources of energy between the two years.

The pie chart shows the different sources of energy in the USA in two decades – 1980s and 1990s. 

The diagram shows that oil was the main energy source for the USA which was used to produce 42% energy in 1980s and 33% in 1990s. Around one-fourth of energy in the USA came from natural gas both in these decades. The usage of nuclear power as a source of energy increases and it produced 10% energy in 1990s which was double than the percentage of energy production from this source in early decade .The production of energy from coal in 1980s was around 22% and it increases by 5% in 1990s. It is very surprising to notice that the production of energy from hydroelectric power remained the same (i.e. 5%) in both decades.

To conclude, oils was the main energy production source in 80s and 90s in the USA and the use of nuclear power as a source of energy doubled.
