<p>The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy produce annual statistics
and future projections of UK energy demand currently up to 2035. Of electricity generated
in 2019, low carbon electricity’s share of generation amounted to 54.2 per cent. This
comprised 36.9 per cent renewables and 17.4 per cent from nuclear generation. Fossil
fuel’s share of generation was 43.4 per cent, of which 40.9 per cent was from gas,
2.1 per cent coal and 0.3 per cent oil. The remaining 2.4 per cent generation share
came from pumped storage and other fuels including the non-renewable component of
waste. It is not possible to identify accurately what proportion of energy is used
to recharge electric buses and other electric vehicles.</p><p> </p>
