How has U.S. energy use changed since 1776?
How has U.S. energy use changed since 1776?

In 2024, the United States consumed about 94 quadrillion British thermal units (quads) of energy, a 1% increase from 2023, according to our Monthly Energy Review. Fossil fuels—petroleum, natural gas, and coal—accounted for 82% of total U.S. energy consumption in 2024. Nonfossil fuel energy—from renewables and nuclear energy—accounted for the other 18%. Petroleum remained the most-consumed fuel in the United States, as it has been for the past 75 years, and nuclear energy consumption exceeded coal consumption for the first time ever.

Electricity use for commercial computing could surpass space cooling, ventilation
Electricity use for commercial computing could surpass space cooling, ventilation

In our Annual Energy Outlook 2025 (AEO2025) Reference case, we project the electricity consumed for commercial computing will increase faster than any other end use in buildings. Computing accounted for an estimated 8% of commercial sector electricity consumption in 2024 and grows to 20% by 2050. Ultimately, more electricity could be consumed by computing than for any other end use in the commercial sector, including lighting, space cooling, and ventilation.

I just recently, very recently installed a solar-panel system using the services of a Florida based company. I live in a suburb of Phoenix called Surprise. I've been looking at solar systems over the past 5 to 6 years and finally took the bit in my mouth to purchase a system. Like with most purchases made these days, the company that you bought the product from soon asks that you provide some feedback and give them some kind of rating.
