good chart...but if you look, the EIA has an even more revealing chart showing the percentage of energy sources used for electricity which shows nuclear close to 20% and wind power around 2%...I don’t have it handy but if you can’t find it, I’ll look for it later today.

The chart above shows ENERGY consumption, which includes ail the gas and oil used for transportation. Your chart is ELECTRICAL power, which has a nuclear component of 20% and a renewables wedge of 2%.
