The United States had a nameplate generation capacity of 1,213 GW in 2021. [7] The following table summarizes the electrical energy generated by fuel source for the United States grid in 2021. Figures account for generation losses, but not transmission losses. Fission had the highest capacity factor, while petroleum had the lowest.
The following table shows the yearly US per capita consumption by fuel source from 1999 to 2022. The following table used the first column from the Demographics of the United States#Vital statistics table for population, and generation from Electric Power Annual. Technically this means that "consumption" includes transmission losses, etc ...
The US generated 4,231 TWh in 2022. Some 41 TWh of net imports and 204 TWh of line losses resulted in total consumption of 4,067 TWh. [1] Texas produced the most with 526 TWh, twice as much as Florida or Pennsylvania. In 2022, natural gas was the largest source of electricity in the US and for 25 states.

Monthly Energy Review: Provides statistics on monthly and annual U.S. energy consumption going back in some cases to 1949. The figures are given in units of quads (quadrillion BTUs.) [13] Annual Energy Review: EIA's primary report of historical annual energy statistics. For many series, data begin with the year 1949.
This is a list of U.S. states by total electricity generation, percent of generation that is renewable, total renewable generation, percent of total domestic renewable generation, [1] and carbon intensity in 2022. [2] The largest renewable electricity source was wind, which has exceeded hydro since 2019. [3]
“Sometimes we have to make really tough decisions due to the limited supply of time, energy (and) money that we might have available,” she said. Drop the need for perfection
Energy production and consumption play a significant role in the global economy. It is needed in industry and global transportation. The total energy supply chain, from production to final consumption, involves many activities that cause a loss of useful energy. [3] As of 2022, energy consumption is still about 80% from fossil fuels. [4]
