the number of days in the year and then multiplying by the
number of days in the month. Industrial sector total wood
consumption is the sum of industrial sector CHP and
non-CHP wood consumption.
Industrial Sector, Biomass Waste
1981: Annual estimate is calculated as total waste
consumption (from EIA, Estimates of U.S. Biofuels
Consumption 1990, Table 8) minus electric power sector
waste consumption (from MER Table 10.2c).
1982 and 1983: Annual estimates are calculated as total
waste consumption (based on Estimates of U.S. Biofuels
Consumption 1990, Table 8) minus electric power sector
waste consumption (from MER, Table 10.2c).
1984: Annual estimate is calculated as total waste
consumption (from EIA, Estimates of U.S. Biofuels
Consumption 1990, Table 8) minus electric power sector
waste consumption (from MER, Table 10.2c).
1985 and 1986: Annual estimates interpolated by EIA.
1987: Annual estimate is calculated as total waste
consumption (from EIA, Estimates of U.S. Biofuels
Consumption 1990, Table 8) minus electric power sector
waste consumption (from MER, Table 10.2c).
1988: Annual estimate interpolated by EIA.
(For 1973–1988, monthly estimates are created by divid-
ing the annual estimates by the number of days in the
year and then multiplying by the number of days in the
month.)
1989 forward: Monthly/annual industrial sector combined-
heat-and-power (CHP) consumption data are from Table
7.4c. Annual estimates for industrial sector non-CHP waste
consumption are based on information presented in Govern-
ment Advisory Associates, Resource Recovery Yearbook
and Methane Recovery Yearbook, and information provided
by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Landfill
Methane Outreach Program (for 2014, the annual estimate is
assumed by EIA to be equal to that of 2013; for 2015, the
annual estimate is from EIA, STEO; for 2016, the annual
estimate is assumed by EIA to be equal to that of 2015).
For 1989, forward, monthly estimates for industrial sector
non-CHP waste consumption are created by dividing the
annual estimates by the number of days in the year and then
multiplying by the number of days in the month. Industrial
sector total waste consumption is the sum of industrial
sector CHP and non-CHP waste consumption.
Industrial Sector, Fuel Ethanol (Minus Denaturant)
1981 forward: The industrial sector share of motor gasoline
consumption is equal to industrial sector motor gasoline
consumption from Table 3.7b divided by motor gasoline
product supplied from Table 3.5. Industrial sector fuel
ethanol (minus denaturant) consumption is equal to fuel
ethanol (minus denaturant) consumption from Table 10.3
multiplied by the industrial sector share of motor gasoline
consumption.
Industrial Sector, Biomass Losses and Co-products
1981 forward: Calculated as fuel ethanol losses and
co-products from Table 10.3 plus biodiesel losses and
co-products from Table 10.4.
Industrial Sector, Total Biomass
1949–1980: Industrial sector total biomass consumption is
equal to industrial sector wood consumption.
1981 forward: Industrial sector total biomass consumption
is the sum of the industrial sector consumption values for
wood, waste, fuel ethanol (minus denaturant), and biomass
losses and co-products.
Industrial Sector, Total Renewable Energy
1949–1988: Industrial sector total renewable energy
consumption is the sum of the industrial sector consumption
values for conventional hydroelectric power and total
biomass.
1989–2009: Industrial sector total renewable energy
consumption is the sum of the industrial sector consumption
values for conventional hydroelectric power, geothermal,
and total biomass.
2010: Industrial sector total renewable energy consumption
is the sum of the industrial sector consumption values for
conventional hydroelectric power, geothermal, solar/PV,
and total biomass.
2011 forward: Industrial sector total renewable energy
consumption is the sum of the industrial sector consumption
values for conventional hydroelectric power, geothermal,
solar/PV, wind, and total biomass.
Transportation Sector, Fuel Ethanol (Minus
Denaturant)
1981 forward: The transportation sector share of motor
gasoline consumption is equal to transportation sector motor
gasoline consumption from Table 3.7c divided by motor
gasoline product supplied from Table 3.5. Transportation
sector fuel ethanol (minus denaturant) consumption is equal
to fuel ethanol (minus denaturant) consumption from Table
10.3 multiplied by the transportation sector share of motor
gasoline consumption.
Transportation Sector, Biodiesel
2001 forward: Table 10.4. Transportation sector biodiesel
consumption is assumed to equal total biodiesel consumption.
Transportation Sector, Other Renewable Fuels
2009 forward: Table 10.4.
Transportation Sector, Total Renewable Energy
1981–2000: Transportation sector total renewable energy
consumption is equal to transportation sector fuel ethanol
(minus denaturant) consumption.
2001–2008: Transportation sector total renewable energy
consumption is the sum of the transportation sector consump-
tion values for fuel ethanol (minus denaturant) and biodiesel.
2009 forward: Transportation sector total renewable energy
consumption is the sum of the transportation sector
consumption values for fuel ethanol (minus denaturant),
biodiesel, and other renewable fuels.
