That will change, as these countries continue to lift their populations out of poverty and a like, the populations will then want access to electricity, cars, and all the trappings of modern civilisation ( and they deserve it) but the demand for power ( still best and cheapest provided by fossil fuels) will continue to increase.
So as China’s and India’s massive populations start to suckle on power more widely expect those figures to change.
