Energy Information Administration. State Energy Data System: Electricity Consumption, Prices, and Expenditures | Indicator: Electricity price in the commercial sector., 1970 - 2014. Data-Planet™ Statistical Datasets by Conquest Systems, Inc. Dataset-ID: 004-012-012 Dataset: Reports estimates of electricity consumption, prices, and expenditures for the United States as a whole and for individual states and Washington, DC, as available. The State Energy Data System (SEDS) is maintained and operated by the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA). The goal in maintaining SEDS is to create historical time series of energy production, consumption, prices, and expenditures by state that are defined as consistently as possible over time and across sectors. SEDS is used primarily to provide (1) state energy production, consumption, price, and expenditure estimates to Members of Congress, federal and state agencies, and the general public; and (2) the historical time series necessary to develop EIA’s energy models. Efforts are made to ensure that the sums of the state estimates equal the national totals as closely as possible for each energy type and end-use sector as published in other EIA publications. SEDS state energy consumption estimates are generally comparable to the statistics in EIA's Annual Energy Review and Monthly Energy Review consumption tables. Although SEDS incorporates the most consistent series and procedures possible, users of this report should recognize the limitations of the data that are due to changing and inadequate data sources. See the technical documentation for information on data inconsistencies. http://www.eia.gov/state/seds/seds-data-complete.cfm Category: Energy Resources and Industries Subject: Prices, Energy Expenditures, Electricity, Energy Consumption Source: Energy Information Administration The Energy Information Administration (EIA), created by Congress in 1977, is an independent statistical and analytical agency within the United States Department of Energy. Its mission is to provide policy-independent data, forecasts, and analyses to promote sound policy making, efficient markets, and public understanding regarding energy and its interaction with the economy and the environment. http://www.eia.doe.gov/
The "Annual Energy Review Database" (AERDB) presents the Energy Information Administration's longterm historical annual energy statistics in machine-readable form. The AERDB is produced using the same database system that produces the data published in the "Annual Energy Review" (AER). Focused on domestic energy statistics for the United States, the AERDB provides statistics for every year since 1949. Topical coverage includes the full range of major energy activities, such as consumption, production, trade, stocks, and prices for all major energy commodities, includeing fossil fuel and electricity. The Annual Energy review also includes an historical perspective on energy use in the U.S. since 1635 ("http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/aer/eh/frame.html")
The AER data is available online at: "http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/aer/contents.html"
Consumption data for coal, petroleum, and natural gas are multiplied by their respective thermal conversion factors, which are in units of heat energy per unit of fuel consumed (i.e., per cubic foot, barrel, or ton), to calculate the amount of heat energy derived from fuel combustion. The thermal conversion factors are given in Appendix A of each issue of Monthly Energy Review, published by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Results are expressed in terms of heat energy obtained from each fuel type. These energy values were obtained from the State Energy Data Report (EIA, 2003a), ( http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/states/sep_use/total/csv/use_csv.html), and served as our basic input. The energy data are also available in hard copy from the Energy Information Administration, U.S. Department of Energy, as the State Energy Data Report (EIA, 2003a,b).

Data-Planet™ Statistical Ready Reference by Conquest Systems, Inc. [Data-file]. Dataset-ID: 004-014-026. Dataset: Provides statistics on electricity consumption by country, as available. For all countries except the United States, total electric power consumption = total net electricity generation + electricity imports - electricity exports – electricity transmission and distribution losses. For the United States, data are drawn from the Energy Information Administration Annual Energy Review, Table 1, which provides a total of electricity retail sales to ultimate customers by electric utilities and, beginning in 1996, other energy service providers; and direct use, ie, use of electricity that is self-generated, produced by either the same entity that consumes the power or an affiliate, and used in direct support of a service or industrial process located within the same facility or group of facilities that house the generating equipment. Data are reported as net consumption, which excludes the energy consumed by the generating units, as opposed to gross consumption. The dataset provides data for 220 countries, as available, on energy-related metrics, including total and crude oil production, oil consumption, natural gas production and consumption, coal production and consumption, electricity generation and consumption, primary energy, energy intensity, CO2 emissions and imports and exports for all fuels.

1,6 (million metric tones of carbon) in 2018. Consumption data for coal, petroleum, and natural gas are multiplied by their respective thermal conversion factors, which are in units of heat energy per unit of fuel consumed (i.e., per cubic foot, barrel, or ton), to calculate the amount of heat energy derived from fuel combustion. The thermal conversion factors are given in Appendix A of each issue of Monthly Energy Review, published by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). These energy consumption data were multiplied by their respective carbon dioxide emission factors, which are called carbon content coefficients by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). These factors quantify the mass of oxidized carbon per unit of energy released from a fuel. In the U.S.A., they are typically expressed in units of teragrams of carbon (Tg-C = 1012 grams of carbon) per quadrillion British thermal units (quadrillion Btu = 1015 Btu, or ""quad""), and are highest for coal and lowest for natural gas. Results are given in teragrams of carbon emitted. To convert to carbon dioxide, multiply by 44/12 (= 3.67).

Estimates of monthly CO2 emissions and associated 13C/12C values from fossil-fuel consumption in the United States are available for the years 1981-2002. These estimates were derived from values of fuel consumed, multiplied by their respective thermal conversion factors, and expressed in units of heat energy derived from the fuel. [Thermal conversion factors are given in Appendix A of each issue of Monthly Energy Review (DOE/EIA, monthly).] These energy values were then multiplied by their respective carbon dioxide emission factors and expressed in units of the mass of carbon emitted per unit of energy liberated by the oxidation of the carbon in the fuel. [Carbon dioxide emission factors are given in Table A of EPA (2002).] Product specific emissions factors were used for the myriad of petroleum products. Finally, the results were multiplied by a factor (EPA, 2002, Table A-14, except for natural gas) to account for carbon not oxidized during combustion but released as soot, ash, or long-lived hydrocarbons.
Several petroleum products have applications not related to energy production and are not oxidized immediately when the products are consumed; these include asphalt, waxes, petroleum coke, special naphtha, etc. In some cases (e.g., waxes) virtually no carbon is oxidized during use; in other cases (e.g., petroleum coke) a substantial fraction (e.g., estimated 50%) of the carbon is oxidized during use; and for some products (e.g. special naphtha), virtually all the carbon is oxidized within the time frame of interest. The oxidized fractions used to estimate the amounts of carbon dioxide released during consumption are given in Annex B of EPA 2002 (Table B-1).
Although C emissions occur largely in the form of CO2, results are presented here in terms of the mass of C only. (To convert to mass of CO2, multiply the mass of C by 44/12). The authors assume that any C emitted to the atmosphere as CO will be soon oxidized to CO2.
13C values for each month were also estimated. Finally, differences from other CDIAC CO2 emissions estimates (e.g., Marland et al., 2002) are explained in the documentation.
These estimates show an annual cycle of CO2 emissions, peaking during the winter months and reflecting natural gas consumption, and a semi-annual cycle of lesser amplitude, peaking in summer and winter and reflecting coal consumption, comprise the dominant features of the annual pattern. There were relatively constant emissions until 1987, followed by an increase from 1987-1989, a decrease in 1990-1991, and record highs during the late 1990s; emissions have declined somewhat since 2000.
