3 CONTENT: This Department of Energy publication provides data concerning energy<br />

consumption for the U.S. manufacturing sector by 4-digit SIC code. Included are stratified data<br />

by type of energy resource, type of use, <strong>and</strong> quantities used.<br />

4 ACCESSIBILITY: Publicly available data.<br />

5 COST: Publication cost only.<br />

6 UPDATE: Annual.<br />

7 PERTINENCE: This program <strong>and</strong> documentation provides benchmark data for the U.S. electronics<br />

industry with respect to amounts of energy consumed including a number of pertinent<br />

variables. Together with other data (e.g., Department of Commerce) the data in this source can<br />

assist in estimating energy consumption by manufacturing process or unit product.<br />
