Resolved to the % of energy from hydropower + wind + solar + modern biofuels + other renewables for each year according to our world in data:
https://ourworldindata.org/energy-production-consumption
(I will calculate the % base on the numbers in this graph)
Note that electricity was only about 20% of global energy use in 2022 (https://yearbook.enerdata.net/electricity/share-electricity-final-consumption.html)
Fusion does not count for this market.
If our world in data does not refresh their data I will propose and select another resolution source.
I will not trade in the market.

once again, almost no one appreciates how little of our global energy usage is even electrified to begin with, even though you explicitly called it out!
