<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/div>\nOne of the reasons countries are marshaling their financial and political resources is climate change and associated problems. There have been catastrophes associated with global warming and climate change in the last two decades.<\/p>\n
Investments in renewable energy are seen as the solution to combat global warming.<\/p>\n
Given that renewable energy sources are about to become a reality in the next few years, there’s a need to track their effectiveness.<\/p>\n
In other words, we need to track key metrics, such as:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Quantity of energy produced<\/li>\n
- The composition of renewable energy sources (wind, hydro, geothermal, solar power)<\/li>\n
- Consumed amount of energy, lost or saved<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Some of the tested and proven visualization designs for the task include:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Sankey Chart<\/li>\n
- Clustered Bar Chart<\/li>\n
- Donut Chart<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
These charts are incredibly easy to decode, even for non-technical audiences.<\/p>\n
Google Sheets is one of the go-to popular data visualization tools among professionals and business owners worldwide. But the visualization tool has basic Sankey Chart, Clustered Bar Chart<\/em>, and Donut Charts. <\/em><\/p>\n
And this implies you’ve got to invest extra effort and time to edit the charts to align with your needs.<\/p>\n
You can download and install a specific add-in in your Google Sheets to access ready-to-use charts (highlighted below).<\/p>\n
In this blog you’ll learn the following:<\/p>\n

Before diving into the how-to guide, let’s address the following question: what is renewable energy?<\/p>\n
What is Renewable Energy?<\/h2>\n
Definition<\/strong>: Renewable energy is clean energy that comes mostly from natural sources or processes.<\/p>\n
For example, sunlight or wind keeps shining and blowing, even if their availability depends on time and weather.<\/p>\n
This form of energy is often viewed as the solution to devastating climate change and global warming. Renewables are becoming a more important power source, accounting for over one-eighth of U.S. generation.<\/p>\n
As renewable use continues to grow, a key goal will be to modernize America’s electricity grid, making it smarter, more secure, and better integrated across regions.<\/p>\n
To account for energy consumption, production, and losses, you need renewable energy charts, such as the Sankey Chart.<\/p>\n
Understanding Renewable Energy Chart<\/h2>\n
A renewable energy chart visually represents data on the production, consumption, and growth of various renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal.<\/p>\n
Illustrating these metrics, helps stakeholders understand trends, make comparisons, and track the progress of renewable energy adoption, aiding in informed decision-making<\/a> for sustainability and energy policies.<\/p>\n
