As before, the graph provided does not support the title of the blog post. It only gives the capacity of gas-fired generating plants placed on-line during the year. It does not give the total capacity in any year, nor does it give the capacity of all generating plants broken down by fuel type. If you want that, one source is:

https://www.eia.gov/electricity/annual/html/epa_01_02.html

Good information regarding the efficiency of different types of plants, but otherwise a waste of time to read this.
