Time series of global primary energy consumption by source, showing not much change in the total percentage of primary energy from the three fossil fuels. Primary energy is calculated based on the 'substitution method' which takes account of the inefficiencies in fossil fuel = production by converting non-fossil energy into the energy inputs required if they had the same conversion losses as fossil fuels. The fossil fuels are: Natural gas Oil Coal Non-fossil fuels are: Other Renewables Modern biofuels Solar Wind Hydropower Nuclear Traditional biomass
