TERMS
Energy Consumption: The use of energy as a source of heat or power or
as an input in the manufacturing process.
Energy Consumption, End-Use: The sum of fossil fuel consumption by
the four end-use sectors (residential, commercial, industrial, and transportation)
plus electric utility sales to those sectors and generation of hydroelectric
power by nonelectric utilities. Net end-use energy consumption
excludes electrical system energy losses. Total end-use energy consumption
includes electrical system energy losses.
Energy Consumption, Total: The sum of fossil fuels and renewable
energy consumed by the five sectors (residential, commercial, industrial,
transportation, and electric utility) plus coal coke net imports, nuclear
electric power, and hydroelectric pumped storage.
British Thermal Unit (Btu): The quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature
of 1 pound of water by 1° F at or near 39.2° F.
Electric Utility Sector: The electric utility sector consists of privately
and publicly owned establishments that generate, transmit, distribute, or
sell electricity primarily for use by the public and that meet the definition
of an electric utility. Nonutility power producers are not included in the
electric utility sector.
Commercial Sector: The commercial sector, as defined economically,
consists of business establishments that are not engaged in transportation
or in manufacturing or other types of industrial activity (agriculture, mining,
or construction). Commercial establishments include hotels, motels,
restaurants, wholesale businesses, retail stores, laundries, and other service
enterprises; religious and nonprofit organizations; health, social, and educational
institutions; and Federal, State, and local governments. Street
lights, pumps, bridges, and public services are also included if the establishment
operating them is considered commercial. Standard Industrial
Classification (SIC) codes used to classify an establishment as commercial
are 50 through 87, 89, and 91 through 97.
Industrial Sector: The industrial sector comprises manufacturing industries
which make up the largest part of the sector, along with mining, construction,
agriculture, fisheries, and forestry. Establishments in this sector
range from steel mills, to small farms, to companies assembling electronic
components. The SIC codes used to classify establishments as industrial
are 1 through 39.
Residential Sector: The residential sector is considered to consist of all
private residences, whether occupied or vacant, owned or rented, including
single-family homes, multifamily housing units, and mobile homes. Secondary
homes, such as summer homes, are also included. Institutional
housing, such as school dormitories, hospitals, and military barracks, generally
are not included in the residential sector; they are included in the
commercial sector. The Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code used
to classify an establishment as residential is 88 (Household).
Transportation Sector: The transportation sector consists of private and
public vehicles that move people and commodities. Included are automobiles,
trucks, buses, motorcycles, railroads, and railways (including streetcars),
aircraft, ships, barges, and natural gas pipelines. The SIC codes used
to classify establishments as belonging to the transportation sector are 40
through 49.
