It was 13 years and not 10. From your source the bid was won in 2009 and the third reactor started in 2022, with the fourth not ready for that article (middle 2023). Still not 20 years, but 30% above the claimed decade.

The graphic and comparison however are just clickbait. For one it compares a filthy rich oil-state without democracy and Denmark/Portugal where the government can’t just push something like that through. Apart from that it’s made to look like a sudden extreme increase from UAE that might continue that strongly, which it won’t. Starting an NPP of course makes a sudden huge spike, while renewables are more incremental.

This comes as no surprise to me when the source seems to be highly subjective with a huge bias towards UAE:

Those who are critical of these high-energy nations ought to consider that they are not the countries to blame for climate change. Indeed, these countries ought to be applauded for taking measures to wean themselves off of fossil fuels

Of course one of the major oil-states that pushes against measures to slow down the climate change at every chance it gets is not to blame for anything… Sure…

The results of that article are at least highly questionable or straight up wrong though. The Fraunhofer Institute had a look at it, found wrong data and calculations and ended their response with

However, it does not seem expedient to make a detailed analysis of the data due to the fundamentally flawed method.
