Texas is the leading electricity-consuming state in the United States. In 2023, the state consumed 492.8 terawatt-hours of electricity. California and Florida followed in second and third, each consuming approximately 239.48 and 250.94 terawatt-hours, respectively.

State-level data on all energy sources. Data on production, consumption, reserves, stocks, prices, imports, and exports. Data are collated from state-specific data reported elsewhere on the EIA website and are the most recent values available. Data on U.S. territories also available.

Electricity consumption in the United States totaled ***** terawatt-hours in 2024, the highest value in the period under consideration. Figures represent energy end use, which is the sum of retail sales and direct use of electricity by the producing entity. Electricity consumption in the U.S. is expected to continue increasing in the coming years. Which sectors consume the most electricity in the U.S.? Consumption has often been associated with economic growth. Nevertheless, technological improvements in efficiency and new appliance standards have led to a stabilizing of electricity consumption, despite the increased ubiquity of chargeable consumer electronics. Electricity consumption is highest in the residential sector, followed by the commercial sector. Equipment used for space heating and cooling account for some of the largest shares of residential electricity end use. Leading states in electricity use Industrial hub Texas is the leading electricity-consuming U.S. state. In 2023, the southwestern state, which houses major refinery complexes and is also home to over ** million people, consumed almost ****terawatt-hours. Florida and California followed in second and third, with an annual consumption of approximately *** terawatt-hours and 240 terawatt-hours, respectively.

United States Electricity Consumption data was reported at 10.243 kWh/Day bn in Mar 2025. This records a decrease from the previous number of 11.765 kWh/Day bn for Feb 2025. United States Electricity Consumption data is updated monthly, averaging 9.940 kWh/Day bn from Jan 1991 (Median) to Mar 2025, with 411 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 13.179 kWh/Day bn in Jul 2024 and a record low of 7.190 kWh/Day bn in Apr 1991.

Alaska's staggering energy consumption of over one billion British thermal units per capita in 2023 highlights the vast disparities in energy use across the United States. This figure, more than triple the national average of 277.8 million British thermal units, underscores the unique energy demand of America's largest state. Louisiana and North Dakota followed closely behind, with consumption rates of 908 and 892 million British thermal units per capita, respectively. Factors influencing regional U.S. energy consumption The extreme per person energy consumption in Alaska can be attributed to its cold climate and energy-intensive industries. By comparison, New York, California, and Florida were among the states with the lowest per person energy consumption in the country because of the high energy efficiency, mild temperatures, and economies based on services and low energy-intensive industries. The overall energy consumption in the U.S. states was highest in the most populated areas –Texas, California, and Florida- and lower in sparsely populated ones, such as Alaska and Wyoming. Future energy trends in the U.S. While individual states show significant variations, the U.S. country consumed approximately 94.2 quadrillion British thermal units of primary energy in 2024, a slight increase from the previous year. Oil remained the dominant energy source, followed by natural gas and renewable energies. The country's energy market has been evolving, with increased investments in renewable energy, reflecting a growing shift towards more sustainable energy sources.

In 2023, Illinois was the leading state for electricity consumed from nuclear energy sources in the United States. That year, some **** terawatt-hours of nuclear power generated electricity was used in the state. Pennsylvania, where nuclear electric consumption was around **** terawatt-hours, followed. The ranking of nuclear electricity consumption by state correlated with nuclear power generation by state.

Context

India is the world's third-largest producer and third-largest consumer of electricity. The national electric grid in India has an installed capacity of 370.106 GW as of 31 March 2020. Renewable power plants, which also include large hydroelectric plants, constitute 35.86% of India's total installed capacity. During the 2018-19 fiscal year, the gross electricity generated by utilities in India was 1,372 TWh and the total electricity generation (utilities and non-utilities) in the country was 1,547 TWh. The gross electricity consumption in 2018-19 was 1,181 kWh per capita. In 2015-16, electric energy consumption in agriculture was recorded as being the highest (17.89%) worldwide. The per capita electricity consumption is low compared to most other countries despite India having a low electricity tariff.

In light of the recent COVID-19 situation, when everyone has been under lockdown for the months of April & May the impacts of the lockdown on economic activities have been faced by every sector in a positive or a negative way. With the electricity consumption being so crucial to the country, we came up with a plan to study the impact on energy consumption state and region wise.

The dataset is exhaustive in its demonstration of energy consumption state wise.

Content

Data is in the form of a time series for a period of 17 months beginning from 2nd Jan 2019 till 23rd May 2020. Rows are indexed with dates and columns represent states. Rows and columns put together, each datapoint reflects the power consumed in Mega Units (MU) by the given state (column) at the given date (row).
