The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

• As of 2009, more than 80% of the total world energy was being received from fossil fuels. Whereas, the source for more than 10% of total energy was biofuels.

• On the other hand, the energy produced from renewable means like wind, hydro, solar and geothermal resources only made up 5% of the total world energy production.
