1 Anthracite, bituminous, subbituminous, lignite, waste coal, and coal synfuel.<br />

2 Distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, jet fuel, kerosene, and waste oil.<br />

3 Natural gas includes a small amount of supplemental gaseous fuels that cannot be identified separately.<br />

4 Blast furnace gas, propane gas, and other manufactured and waste gases derived from fossil fuels.<br />

5 Wood, black liquor, and other wood waste.<br />

6 Biogenic municipal solid waste, landfill gas, sludge waste, agriculture byproducts, and other biomass.<br />

7 Solar thermal and photovoltaic energy.<br />

8 Non-biogenic municipal solid waste, batteries, chemicals, hydrogen, pitch, purchased steam, sulfur, tire-derived fuel, and miscellaneous technologies.<br />

9 Retail sales and net generation may not correspond exactly for a particular month for a variety of reasons (e.g., sales data may include imported electricity). Net generation is<br />

for the calendar month while retail sales and associated revenue accumulate from bills collected for periods of time (28 to 35 days) that vary dependent upon customer class and<br />

consumption occurring in and outside the calendar month.<br />

10 See Technical notes for additional information on the Commercial, Industrial, and Transportation sectors.<br />

Notes: • Beginning with the collection of Form <strong>EIA</strong>-923 in January 2008, the methodology to allocate total fuel consumption for electricity generation and consumption for<br />

useful thermal output was changed. The new methodology was retroactively applied to 2004-2007. See the Technical Notes (Appendix C) for further information. • Beginning<br />

with 2001 data, non-biogenic municipal solid waste and tire-derived fuels are reclassified as non-renewable energy sources and included in "Other". Biogenic municipal solid<br />

waste is included in "Other Renewables." • Values for 2010 are final. Values for 2011 are preliminary. See Technical Notes for a discussion of the sample designs. • Totals may<br />

not equal sum of components because of independent rounding. • Percentage difference is calculated before rounding.<br />
