Wind power share of global electricity demand vs Renewable share of electricity generation
Wind power share of global electricity demand (point-in-time) and Renewable share of electricity generation (annual). They are published at different intervals, so each is drawn on its own rather than matched period by period.

The series
Over time
Global. Wind power share of global electricity demand is published as point-in-time figures and renewable share of electricity generation as annual ones, so they are drawn on separate charts, clipped to undefined, and no period is matched between them. Read each on its own.

Shared periods
Side by side
No period lines up: wind power share of global electricity demand is point-in-time and renewable share of electricity generation is annual. A month and a year are not the same measurement window, so no row pairs them.
