This is and is only for electricity generation.
Our civilization uses a lot more energy than that, mostly from non-renewables.
Also, what's been happening is that renewables have been being installed at scale, but non-renewable also still is being installed at scale.
We are not decomissioning non-renewables and replacing with renewables.
