Big pie chart is labelled "The share of each source that was used to meet changes in energy demand vs. 2024". What does that mean?

My guess. Total energy consumption in 2024 was x. Total energy consumption in 2025 was x + y. For example, solar PV was installed and led to increased electricity consumption. Or more oil was extracted and used to drive cars around more.

They broke down y into all these different energy sources and made a pie chart. So roughly 25% of y was solar PV.

Global growth in solar "the largest ever observed for any source"
