  1. Energy Consumption and Production Trends By: Yu Kuwabara Brian Ponczak February 27, 2002

  2. Energy Consumed by the Industrial Sector • Coal used to be the primary energy source for the industrial sector. • Currently natural gas, petroleum, and electricity are more widely used.

  3. Energy Consumed by the Commercial Sector • Total electricity usage strongly follows the total energy consumed by the commercial sector.

  4. Energy Consumed by the Transportation Sector • Petroleum dominates the transportation sector.

  5. Energy Consumed by the Residential Sector • Electricity is the primary energy source for the residential sector, followed by natural gas.

  6. Energy Consumed by the Electric Power Sector • Coal has always been the chief source of energy for the electric power sector. • Natural Gas and Nuclear energy usage has increased greatly over the past decade.

  7. Industrial Electricity Consumption • Coal consumption occupies the greatest amount of total industrial electricity consumption.

  8. Residential Electricity Consumption • Coal is also used in the majority of residential electricity consumed. • This data is similar to the industrial electricity consumption.

  9. Transportation Electricity Consumption • Overall, transportation electricity consumption has decreased. • Coal produces most of the electricity used by transportation.

  10. Commercial Electricity Consumption • Coal produces most of the electricity used in the commercial sector.

  11. Total Energy Consumption • Total energy consumption has increased greatly over the past 50 years, with fluctuations in the 1970s. • The industrial sector has always used the most amount of energy.
