Not for electricity generation in general in the USA over the long term. There was a small bump last year. https://ourworldindata.org/ele...

Comment skep sci say 2.83 mm/year, not 2 (Score 2) 72

https://skepticalscience.com/V... says up to 2010 was 2.83 mm/year, man it must have dropped a lot to get to 2 up to 2015.
