Here is a longer US chart

To be fair, that isn't showing production for the sources. Thats only showing the percent of total generation. We use a lot more power now than in 1950, so it makes sense that hydro (which I assume would be flat to declining as you say) reduces in % of power generated. This is a better representation, although its not super up to date.
