I'm not seeing that in US data either. Here's data from a top web hit:

The 10-year change 2015 to 2025 is:
- Gas: +472 TWh, +35%
- Renewables: +525 TWh, +97%
Saying that this is more gas than coal is certainly not the case borne out by the numbers, even in the US, the one place where gas is as cheap as dirt due to it being a by-product of fracking.
