    Seeing as you were hanging your hat on a forecast by the nuclear industry, here's another view. https://hotcopper.com.au/data/attachments/6133/6133481-4331cb1b31cb6d968abcb863babac6f0.jpg

    Renewables produce 85% of global power, nearly 50% of energy in 2050

    Renewables produce 85% of global power, nearly 50% of energy in 2050Taken from DNV GL’s Energy Transition Outlook.

    Solar photovoltaic (PV), onshore wind, hydro and offshore wind power plants will be producing some 85% of global electricity in 2050, and the share of renewables in the world’s energy mix will come near 50%, says DNV GL’s Energy Transition Outlook.

    Final energy demand in 2050 is expected to arrive at 430 exajoules (EJ), as compared to 400 EJ in 2015. The quite modest increase of some 30 EJ will actually happen prior to 2030, and demand will flatten after that year. Demand growth will slow down due to decelerating population and productivity growth, greater strides in energy efficiency, and increased electrification such as in the heating and transport sectors. Electricity consumption is projected to jump by 140%, becoming the largest energy carrier,
