Historically speaking, this seems true. My understanding is that you're only looking at hydrocarbons (coal/gas), nuclear, and hydro, since everyone else is pretty new. Hydro is obviously the cleanest/safest, and nuclear has killed far fewer people than coal/gas.

The deaths from the Banqiao dam failure alone dwarf the entire history of nuclear power.
