State Profiles and Energy Estimates

Changes to the State Energy Data System (SEDS) Notice: In October 2023, we updated the way we calculate primary energy consumption of electricity generation from noncombustible renewable energy sources (solar, wind, hydroelectric, and geothermal). Visit our Changes to 1960—2022 conversion factor for renewable energy page to learn more.

aBeginning in 2008, consumption data are no longer collected and are assumed to be zero. fElectricity sales to ultimate customers reported by electric utilities and, beginning in 1996, other energy
service providers.
bIncludes supplemental gaseous fuels that are commingled with natural gas. Where shown, R = Revised data, — = No consumption.
cHydrocarbon gas liquids, assumed to be propane only. Note: Expenditure totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding.
dWood and wood-derived fuels. Web Page: All data are available at https://www.eia.gov/state/seds/seds-data-complete.php.
