aTransportation use of natural gas as vehicle fuel only. gElectricity sales to ultimate customers reported by electric utilities and, beginning in 1996, other energy service providers.
Sales to public railroads and railway systems only. Excludes electric vehicles.
bBeginning in 2009, includes biodiesel blended into distillate fuel oil. Beginning in 2011, includes renewable diesel blended
into distillate fuel oil. Beginning in 2021, includes biodiesel and renewable diesel product supplied.		 Where shown, R = Revised data and (s) = Value less than 0.05 million dollars.
cHydrocarbon gas liquids, assumed to be propane only. Where shown, — = No consumption, including cases where adjustments were made. See explanation of adjustments in
Section 7 of the Technical Notes.
dThrough 2004, includes kerosene-type and naphtha-type jet fuel. Beginning in 2005, includes kerosene-type jet fuel only;
naphtha-type jet fuel is included in "Industrial sector, Other petroleum." There is a discontinuity in expenditures time series
between 2009 and 2010 because of consumption data source and methodology changes, see technical notes.		 Note: Expenditure totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding.
eBeginning in 1993, includes fuel ethanol blended into motor gasoline. Web Page: All data are available at https://www.eia.gov/state/seds/seds-data-complete.php.
fFor 1981 through 1992, includes fuel ethanol blended into motor gasoline that is not included in the motor gasoline
column.		 Data Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, State Energy Data System. See Technical Notes.
