The guys at ENERGYminute put this visualization together which I thought was pretty cool. Interesting to see that China's renewable electricity growth has indeed been exponentially growing since 2008. However, their non-emitting electricity generation % of total has been linearly growing at ~1-2% per year since ~2011.
What happens a decade from now will be fascinating.
