Industrial Energy by Fuel Since 1970, electricity has become the largest energy source for the industry ‘Green’ – non fossil fuel electricity is becoming a significant energy source
Commercial Residential Sector Indices • The residential and Commercial sector have grown parallel since 1950
Commercial Residential Sector • The person/housing declined but the energy/housing peaked around 1970 • The residential units and the energy use has grown have grown parallel since 1950

Commercial Residential Sox Emissions • Since the 1960s, direct Sox emissions from the CR sector has been minimal • Virtually all the CR Sox emissions are contributed indirectly through the use of electricity
Comm. Res. Sox Emission Factors/Person • Considering only the direct emissions, the em. factors have declined dramatically • Including the indirect EL emissions, the em. factors have declined slightly
