EKS, Some corrections and comments: (1) Coal 17.4% vs NG 9.31% for Electrical generation. [Numbers are quads, not percentages. Coal for electric gen was 15.9 vs. 9.31 for NG.] (2) Only 10.6% of Electrical usage is Residential. [10.6 quads residential end use (all energy sources); but over 1/3rd of all electric end use (4.69 of ~13 quads).] (3) I see little to no electrical allocated to transportation which probably will grow w/ the introduction of electrical cars. [Good luck to EIA allocating electric use to home charging for this (residential vs. transportation) going forward.] (4) Petroleum for Autos will probably come down due to more fuel efficient engines. [Not just autos, but aerospace as well. But won't be rapid change since slow fleet turnover. And depends on trucking and aerospace growth rate as well.] (5) Would have thought Biomass would be a future grower especially for the Industrial Sector (ie > 4.3%). [Outside of biomass use for paper/wood manufacturing and ethanol production, it'll be hard for biomass to grow too much with NG prices where they are.] Also, the 2013 chart is available: flowcharts.llnl.gov Bear in mind warm winter 2012 impacted energy use negatively.
