NM = Not meaningful due to large relative standard error. W = Withheld to avoid disclosure of individual company data. Coal generation and consumption includes anthracite, bituminous, subbituminous, lignite, waste coal, refined coal, synthetic coal, and coal-derived synthesis gas. Petroleum Liquids includes distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, jet fuel, kerosene, propane, and waste oil. Petroleum Coke includes petroleum coke and synthesis gas derived from petroleum coke. Natural gas includes a small amount of supplemental gaseous fuels that cannot be identified separately. Other Fossil Gas includes gaseous propane, blast furnace gas, other manufactured and waste gases derived from fossil fuels other than hydrogen. Wood and Wood-Derived Fuels include wood, black liquor, and other wood waste. Other Biomass includes biogenic municipal solid waste, landfill gas, sludge waste, agricultural byproducts, and other biomass. Other Energy Sources includes hydrogen, non-biogenic municipal solid waste, batteries, purchased steam, sulfur, tire-derived fuel, and other miscellaneous energy sources. Coal stocks include anthracite, bituminous, subbituminous, lignite, refined coal, and synthetic coal; waste coal is excluded. Sales of electricity to ultimate customers and net generation may not correspond exactly for a particular month for a variety of reasons (e.g., sales data may include imported electricity). Net generation is presented for the calendar month while sales of electricity to ultimate customers and associated revenue accumulate from bills collected for periods of time that vary depending upon customer class and consumption occurring during and outside the calendar month. Note: Values are final. Percentage change is calculated before rounding. See technical notes for additional information including more on the Commercial, Industrial, and Transportation sectors.
