As far as I can make out, these data are for net expansions in capacity. The good news? The percentage of renewables in new generation capacity is steadily rising, and is now nearly three-quarters of total new generation capacity. At the rate at which this percentage is increasing, it wil reach 100% in 7 or 8 years. The bad news? The renewable share in total generation capacity rose from 33.3% in 2018 to 34.7% in 2019. And at this measly rate of increase, it will take 46 years to reach 100%. This is far, far too slow. We need to get to a 100% renewable grid long before 2066.
