  1. Distribution of Fuel By Sector: Past and Present Sustainable Air Quality Matt Fishman

  2. Texas 2003 Thousands of people 1960 Thousands of people New York California Ohio Population Growth Some states, such as Texas, California, and Florida saw a tremendous growth in population since the 1960’s. This is one of the factors driving an increase in fuel usage. Many state have not seen very much growth since the 60’s. The rise in energy use in these states drives the per capita energy use up.

  3. Residential BBtu BBtu 1960 2003 1960 2003 MBtu/Person MBtu/Person California Florida In 1960, the northern states used slightly more energy per capita than the southern states in the residential sector. By 2003, the states had approximately the same energy use per person. (With the exception of California)

  4. Commercial BBtu BBtu 1960 2003 1960 2003 MBtu/Person MBtu/Person Wyoming Virginia In 1960, the commercial energy use per person was relatively small. Only looking at total energy, the powerhouse states like NY and CA were using the most power. By 2003, the entire east coast has exploded in commercial energy use. However, on a per person basis, most of the states are on the same level.

  5. Industrial BBtu BBtu 1960 2003 1960 2003 MBtu/Person MBtu/Person Texas Wyoming In 1960, the Industrial sector was by far the largest consumer of energy. The states that have large supplies of coal and natural gas top the charts here. On 2003, the same story is true. Wyoming, Texas, Louisiana and North Dakota are the largest consumers of energy per capita.

  6. Transportation BBtu BBtu 1960 2003 1960 2003 MBtu/Person MBtu/Person Wyoming Louisiana In 1960, the transportation industry energy use was similar across the country. In 2003, the energy use was still relatively close between most states, with the exception of Wyoming.

  7. Electrical Utilities BBtu BBtu 1960 2003 1960 2003 MBtu/Person MBtu/Person Wyoming West Virginia In 1960, the electrical utilities in most states were the same, but some on the west coast and in the Ohio river valley were slightly higher. By 2003, the electrical utilities in states such as Wyoming, West Virginia, and North Dakota have shown steep increases in fuel consumption. This may be due to the large supply of coal in these locations.
