Thus, fossil fuels still produce 3 times more electricity than renewable energies. They account for 74% of production; while green energies encompass 26% with hydroelectricity and only 10% without hydro! We can see how wind and solar are dwarves alongside coal and gas.
The goal for the world is to achieve between 20 and 30% of production from renewable (without hydroelectricity) by 2035, the road ahead is long and not without pitfalls.
If the production of electricity from oil has collapsed since the 1950s, the one from gas increased drastically, and the one from coal literally explodes like a crazy train that nobody can stop. Countries are therefore moving towards CO2 capture and storage technologies to limit breakage.
