U.S. Energy-Related Carbon Dioxide Emissions, 2022

Nov 29, 2023
According to our recently released report on 2022 energy-related CO2 emissions, U.S. CO2 emissions from the consumption of fossil fuels totaled 4,939 million metric tons (MMmt) in 2022, an increase of 1% (34 MMmt) from 2021. Numerous factors influenced these emissions changes, such as decreased coal-fired electricity generation, increased demand for heating in buildings, and waning impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on transportation. This analysis is based on data contained in our Monthly Energy Review, Short-Term Energy Outlook, and Quarterly Coal Report.

Monthly Energy Review

Nov 27, 2023
The Monthly Energy Review is our comprehensive report on recent and historical energy statistics. According to our November 2023 report, preliminary estimates indicate that U.S. primary energy production totaled 8.9 quadrillion British thermal units in August 2023, a 4% increase from August 2022.

Electric Power Monthly

Nov 22, 2023
Data in the November 2023 Electric Power Monthly (EPM) are for September 2023, when net generation in the United States was up 1.8% from September 2022. Consumption of natural gas for power generation was up 5.5% compared with September 2022. The average residential retail price of electricity was up 0.6% from September 2022.

Electricity Monthly Update

Nov 22, 2023
This month’s Electric Monthly Update contains data for September 2023 and a feature article about how carbon dioxide emissions fell slightly in 2022 due to a reduction in the carbon intensity of electric power sources.

How do different crude oil prices affect U.S. crude oil and natural gas production?

Nov 16, 2023
The November edition of EIA's Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO) now includes analysis of three crude oil price scenarios and the resulting effects on drilling activity and U.S. crude oil and natural gas production. In particular, the analysis highlights the Permian production region of western Texas and eastern New Mexico, which is the most prolific crude oil production region in the United States and the source of most of the country's associated natural gas production.

Monthly Solar Photovoltaic Module Shipments Report

Nov 15, 2023
This report contains monthly summary data for the photovoltaic industry in the United States. Data include manufacturing, imports, and exports of modules in the United States and its territories. Summary data include volumes in peak kilowatts and average prices. Where possible, imports and exports are listed by country, and shipments to the United States are listed by state.

China Country Analysis Brief

Nov 14, 2023
China was the most populous country in 2022. However, with a declining population for the first time since 1961, China will be overtaken by India in 2023, according to United Nations estimates. China was the largest energy producer and consumer in the world in 2021. Primary energy production grew by more than 6% in 2021.

Drilling Productivity Report

Nov 13, 2023
The Drilling Productivity Report has been updated with the latest charts and methodology. This report uses recent data on the total number of drilling rigs in operation along with estimates of drilling productivity and estimated changes in production from existing oil and natural gas wells to provide estimated changes in oil and natural gas production for seven key regions.

Short-Term Energy Outlook

Nov 7, 2023
Global oil supply. We forecast global liquid fuels production will increase by 1.0 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2024. Ongoing OPEC+ production cuts will offset production growth from non-OPEC countries and help maintain a relatively balanced global oil market next year. Although the conflict between Israel and Hamas has not affected physical oil supply at this point, uncertainties surrounding the conflict and other global oil supply conditions could put upward pressure on crude oil prices in the coming months. We forecast the Brent crude oil price will increase from an average of $90 per barrel (b) in the fourth quarter of 2023 to an average of $93/b in 2024.

Winter 2023–24 Global LNG Analysis

Nov 6, 2023
Relatively full natural gas inventories in the United States and Europe as well as expanded global export and import capacity for liquefied natural gas (LNG) have improved the likelihood that supply will be sufficient to meet demand in global natural gas markets as we enter the upcoming 2023–24 winter season (November–March). However, risks to this balance are associated with possible extreme weather and supply issues.

State Electricity Profiles updated with 2022 data

Nov 2, 2023

We split the wind category into onshore wind and offshore wind for the capacity, generation, and capacity factor tables.

We have released new State Electricity Profiles with final state-level data through 2022 on:

  • Electricity sales
  • Electricity generation
  • Electricity generating capacity
  • Supply and disposition balance
  • Power plant emissions
  • Energy efficiency and advanced metering
  • Distributed capacity

The profiles also include a new table on reliability (SIADI/SAIFI data).

Wholesale Electricity Market Data

Nov 2, 2023
This site contains spreadsheets with wholesale electricity and natural gas data from eight major trading hubs that cover most regions of the United States. The data are through October 31, 2023, and are republished, with permission, from the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE).

Petroleum Marketing Monthly

Nov 1, 2023

Solar power generation drives electricity generation growth over the next two years ›

Electricity generation by the U.S. electric power sector totaled about 4,260 billion kilowatthours (BkWh) in 2025. In our latest Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), we expect U.S. electricity generation will grow by 1.1% in 2026 and by 2.6% in 2027, when it reaches an annual total of 4,423 BkWh. The three main dispatchable sources of electricity generation (natural gas, coal, and nuclear) accounted for 75% of total generation in 2025, but we expect the share of generation from these sources will fall to about 72% in 2027. We expect the combined share of generation from solar power and wind power to rise from about 18% in 2025 to about 21% in 2027. More
