Wind power capacity rose by 20 GW and solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity by 9 GW. Wind generation accounted for 22 percent of the global total, and PV was 16 percent of the global total.</li><li>Natural gas imports reached 60 billion cubic meters (m<sup>3</sup>), up 13 percent, including a 15 percent rise in pipeline gas from Central Asia, and a 10 percent increase in liquefied natural gas imports. Crude oil imports rose 9.5 percent to 6.7 million barrels/day, and coal imports fell 15 percent to 156 million tonnes.</li></ul>},
