America's not actually that far behind Europe. In 2022 Europe was using more fossil fuels than America due to the surge in coal use. Most countries are expected to reduce their fossil fuels in 2023 because there's an expectation of a bubble pop.

Used, or bought? Apparently two thirds of the additional coal bought by Europe is sitting unused in stockpiles.

This would be their energy mix, so used.
