What the source says

Renewables in transport mostly comes from biofuels, and although renewable electricity consumption in road (such as electric cars, two- and- three wheelers, and buses) and rail transport modes increases 65% over the forecast period, this is from a low base.

Checked: the figure 65% is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
