Question

to get to net zero, we must change how we obtain and use energy. in particular, we need to increase our use of renewable energy. globally, the three main sources of renewable electricity are wind, solar and hydropower. hydropower is the generation of electricity from flowing water. this includes hydroelectric dams, which use water stored behind a dam wall to generate electricity.
by looking at real data, we can see how our use of renewable energy is changing. the graph below shows the worldwide production of electricity from different renewable sources. the amount of energy is measured in terawatt - hours (twh).

worldwide electricity production from renewable sources

question 2
identify which renewable source of energy generated the most electricity globally in 2022.
□ wind
□ solar
□ hydropower
□ other renewables
□ im not sure

question 3
describe the global trends for hydropower, wind power and solar power.

Explanation:

Question 2

To determine which renewable source generated the most electricity in 2022, we analyze the graph. The "Hydropower" line reaches the highest electricity production (in TWh) among the options (Wind, Solar, Hydropower, Other renewables) at 2022.

• Hydropower: The graph shows a steady, long - term upward trend in electricity production over the years (from 1965 to 2022), with a relatively smooth increase.
• Wind power: There is an upward trend, and the rate of increase appears to accelerate, especially in the later years (around 2000 - 2022), showing a steeper growth curve compared to its earlier growth.
• Solar power: The growth is also upward, and the curve is very steep, indicating a rapid increase in electricity production, especially in the more recent years (post - 2000, and more so towards 2022), suggesting a fast - growing trend.

Answer:

Hydropower (the checkbox next to "Hydropower" should be selected)
