[1] Anthracite, bituminous, subbituminous, lignite, waste coal, and synthetic coal. Coal stocks exclude waste coal. [2] Distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, jet fuel, kerosene, and waste oil. In 2004 petroleum stocks exclude waste oil. [3] Natural gas includes a small amount of supplemental gaseous fuels that cannot be identified separately. Excludes blast furnace gas and other gases. [4] Includes conventional hydroelectric and hydroelectric pumped storage facilities. [5] Includes geothermal, wood, waste, wind, and solar, batteries, chemicals, hydrogen, pitch, purchased steam, sulfur, and miscellaneous technologies. [6] Stocks are end-of-month values. [7] See technical notes (http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/electricity/epm/appenc.pdf) for additional information on the Commercial, Industrial and Transportation sectors. [8] Data represent weighted values. * = Value is less than 0.05. Notes: The average revenue per kilowatthour is calculated by dividing revenue by sales. Mean absolute value of change is the unweighted average of the absolute changes. Totals may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding.
