Electric power generation, which is about 20% of all energy used.
What’s the difference here?
Not all gas, coal and oil are consumed to generate electricity. Lots is converted directly to energy in engines, furnaces, or other direct uses for the materials. They are saying that the title refers to 40% of the total electricity production is generated by renewables.
