    Description

    Industrial activities are the greatest energy end-user sector in the United States, reaching a consumption of some 31 quadrillion British thermal units in 2024, followed by the transportation sector. The U.S. is the second-largest energy consumer in the world, after China. Energy source in the United States Consumption of fossil fuels still accounts for the majority of U.S. primary energy consumption. The transportation and industrial sectors are the sectors with the largest fossil fuel consumption in the country, the former relying on oil-based motor fuels. Electricity generation in the United States Although around 60 percent of the electricity generated in the U.S. is derived from natural gas and coal, the use of renewable sources is becoming more common in electricity production, with the largest increase in wind and solar power. These two clean energy resources are projected to generate as much power as natural gas by 2030.

    Petroleum is the primary source of energy in the United States, with a consumption of 35.35 quadrillion British thermal units in 2024. Closely following, the U.S. had 34.2 quadrillion British thermal units of energy derived from natural gas. Energy consumption by sector in the United States Petroleum is predominantly utilized as a fuel in the transportation sector, which is also the second-largest consumer of energy in the U.S. with almost 30 percent of the country’s total energy consumption in 2024. This figure is topped only by the energy-guzzling industrial sector, a major consumer of fossil fuels such as petroleum and natural gas. Renewable energy in the United States Despite the prevalence of fossil fuels in the U.S. energy mix, the use of renewable energy consumption has grown immensely in the last decades to approximately 11 exajoules in 2023. Most of the renewable energy produced in the U.S. is derived from biomass, hydro and wind sources. In 2024, renewable electricity accounted for approximately 24 percent of the nation’s total electricity generation.

    Industrial Energy End Use in the U.S

    Facility-Level Combustion Energy Data

    By US Open Data Portal, data.gov [source]

    About this dataset

    This dataset contains in-depth facility-level information on industrial combustion energy use in the United States. It provides an essential resource for understanding consumption patterns across different sectors and industries, as reported by large emitters (>25,000 metric tons CO2e per year) under the U.S. EPA's Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP). Our records have been calculated using EPA default emissions factors and contain data on fuel type, location (latitude, longitude), combustion unit type and energy end use classified by manufacturing NAICS code. Additionally, our dataset reveals valuable insight into the thermal spectrum of low-temperature energy use from a 2010 Energy Information Administration Manufacturing Energy Consumption Survey (MECS). This information is critical to assessing industrial trends of energy consumption in manufacturing sectors and can serve as an informative baseline for efficient or renewable alternative plans of operation at these facilities. With this dataset you're just a few clicks away from analyzing research questions related to consumption levels across industries, waste issues associated with unconstrained fossil fuel burning practices and their environmental impacts

    How to use the dataset

    This dataset provides detailed information on industrial combustion energy end use in the United States. Knowing how certain industries use fuel can be valuable for those interested in reducing energy consumption and its associated environmental impacts.

    • To make the most out of this dataset, users should first become familiar with what's included by looking at the columns and their respective definitions. After becoming familiar with the data, users should start to explore areas of interest such as Fuel Type, Report Year, Primary NAICS Code, Emissions Indicators etc. The more granular and specific details you can focus on will help build a stronger analysis from which to draw conclusions from your data set.

    • Next steps could include filtering your data set down by region or end user type (such as direct related processes or indirect support activities). Segmenting your data set further can allow you to identify trends between fuel type used in different regions or compare emissions indicators between different processes within manufacturing industries etc. By taking a closer look through this lens you may be able to find valuable insights that can help inform better decision making when it comes to reducing energy consumption throughout industry in both public and private sectors alike.

    • if exploring specific trends within industry is not something that’s of particular interest to you but rather understanding general patterns among large emitters across regions then it may be beneficial for your analysis to group like-data together and take averages over larger samples which better represent total production across an area or multiple states (timeline varies depending on needs). This approach could open up new possibilities for exploring correlations between economic productivity metrics compared against industrial energy use over periods of time which could lead towards more formal investigations about where efforts are being made towards improved resource efficiency standards among certain industries/areas of production compared against other more inefficient sectors/regionsetc — all from what's already present here!

    By leveraging the information provided within this dataset users have access to many opportunities for finding all sorts of interesting yet practical insights which can have important impacts far beyond understanding just another singular statistic alone; so happy digging!

    Research Ideas

    • Analyzing the trends in combustion energy uses by region across different industries.
    • Predicting the potential of transitioning to clean and renewable sources of energy considering the current end-uses and their magnitude based on this data.
    • Creating an interactive web map application to visualize multiple industrial sites, including their energy sources and emissions data from this dataset combined with other sources (EPA’s GHGRP, MECS survey, etc)

    Market Dynamics of Electricity Generation Market

    Key Drivers for Electricity Generation Market

    Rising need for cooling boosts the electricity generation market: The increased demand for cooling is projected to drive the electricity generating market in the future years. Cooling is the process of lowering the temperature of an object or environment, which is usually accomplished by transporting heat away from the intended location, typically utilizing air or a cooling medium. Power generation can be utilized to cool by running air conditioning (AC) and fans to keep indoor temperatures comfortable. For instance, According to the International Energy Agency, an autonomous intergovernmental body located in France, in July 2023, more than 90% of households in the United States and Japan had an air conditioner. Cooling accounts for around 10% of global electricity use. In warmer countries, this might result in a more than 50% increase in power demand during the summer months. As a result, increased demand for cooling is likely to drive expansion in the power generating industry.

    Increasing applications of electricity in the transportation industry: The growing use of energy in the transportation industry is predicted to increase demand for electricity, hence pushing the power generation market. The electrification of railways in underdeveloped and developing countries, the establishment of public transportation networks such as rapid metro transit systems, and the growing use of electric vehicles in developed countries will all create significant market opportunities for power generation companies. For instance, in order to achieve net-zero carbon emissions, the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) predicts that 13,000 track kilometers - or roughly 450 km per year - of track in the UK will need to be electrified by 2050, with 179 km electrified between 2020 and 2021. According to the Edison Electric Institute (EEl), yearly electric car sales in the United States are estimated to exceed 1.2 million by 2025. Electric vehicles are projected to account for 9% of worldwide electricity demand by 2050.

    Restraint Factor for the Electricity Generation Market

    High initial capital investment for renewable projects: The high initial capital for renewable projects is indeed a limiting factor for the market growth of the electricity generation sector, as most such technologies, infrastructure, and installation depend on significant up-front funding. For instance, most renewable energy technologies are highly capital intensive-solar, and wind, in particular, scares investors away from taking action, especially if they are small or developing firms. There is thus an economic limitation that restricts competition and contributes toward slower development of cleaner energy solutions. Moreover, funding can be quite tricky and challenging-especially for a poor economic climate. The payback times attached to these investment options are long, leading to uncertainty and making stakeholders reluctant to commit. These financial constraints are, therefore, blighting the transition to renewable energy as well as, more broadly, the overall electricity generation market

    Description

    In 2024, renewable energy sources represented over 90 percent of electricity capacity additions in the U.S., while natural gas capacity additions decreased to two percent that same year. Coal electricity capacity additions were phased in the U.S in 2014. Growth in renewable electricity generation The surge in renewable capacity additions aligns with the overall increase in renewable electricity generation. In 2023, renewable sources produced more than 890 terawatt-hours of electricity in the United States. Wind power has emerged as the leading renewable electricity source, surpassing conventional hydroelectric power at the beginning of 2020. This growth in renewable generation is occurring against the backdrop of a slight decrease in total U.S. electricity generation, which fell by 120 terawatt-hours from 2023 to 2024, reaching 4,304 terawatt-hours. Future outlook and consumption patterns Looking ahead, the trend towards renewable energy is expected to continue. Projections indicate that by 2050, renewable energy consumption in the United States will reach approximately 21.7 quadrillion British thermal units, more than doubling the estimated consumption in 2022. This growth in renewable energy aligns with changing consumption patterns in the electricity market. In 2023, retail electricity sales in the U.S. totaled about 3.9 petawatt-hours, with the residential sector accounting for around 40 percent of these sales in the previous year.

Description

Industrial activities are the greatest energy end-user sector in the United States, reaching a consumption of some 31 quadrillion British thermal units in 2024, followed by the transportation sector. The U.S. is the second-largest energy consumer in the world, after China. Energy source in the United States Consumption of fossil fuels still accounts for the majority of U.S. primary energy consumption. The transportation and industrial sectors are the sectors with the largest fossil fuel consumption in the country, the former relying on oil-based motor fuels. Electricity generation in the United States Although around 60 percent of the electricity generated in the U.S. is derived from natural gas and coal, the use of renewable sources is becoming more common in electricity production, with the largest increase in wind and solar power. These two clean energy resources are projected to generate as much power as natural gas by 2030.
