Nebraska's Total Energy Expenditures by Fuel Type |
|
Nebraska's total expenditures on energy increased 18.8 percent to $6,414.4 million (or $6.4 billion) from 2004 to 2005. The first table below shows that, in 2005, $3,806.8 million (or $3.8 billion) was spent on petroleum, $1,073.5 million was spent on natural gas, $166.7 million was spent on coal, $39.5 million was spent on nuclear fuel, and $9.6 million was spent on renewable energy. Wood and waste make up the entire cost associated with renewable energy since there are no direct fuel costs for hydroelectric, geothermal, wind, photovoltaic, or solar thermal energy. The Energy Information Administration does not track the expenditures on ethanol. Expenditures on petroleum were over half (59.4 percent) of Nebraska's total expenditures on energy in 2005 with natural gas comprising the other major portion (16.7 percent). Two and six-tenths percent (2.6%) of Nebraska's expenditures were spent on coal, 0.6 percent were spent on nuclear fuel, and 0.2 percent were spent on renewable energy. Petroleum is divided into ten fuels or categories of fuels: motor gasoline (48.4 percent of petroleum), distillate fuel (40.0 percent), propane (5.8 percent), lubricants (2.1 percent), jet fuel (1.8 percent), asphalt and road oil (1.1 percent), other petroleum (0.5 percent), residual fuel (0.2 percent), aviation gasoline (0.2 percent), and kerosene (0.04 percent). Other petroleum includes sixteen (16) separate products, all of which are assigned to the industrial sector. The sixteen products are: aviation gasoline blending components; crude oil; motor gasoline blending components; natural gasoline, including isopentane; pentanes plus; petrochemical feedstocks, naphtha; petrochemical feedstocks, other oils; petrochemical feedstocks, still gas; petroleum coke; plant condensate; special naphthas; still gas; unfinished oils; unfractionated streams; waxes; and miscellaneous. Miscellaneous products vary from inexpensive (absorption oils similar to kerosene) to very expensive (hydraulic fluids) products. The greater part of the miscellaneous product line consists of finished petrochemicals, especially the aromatic hydrocarbons: benzene, toluene, and the xylenes. Petroleum products are listed in the second table below to conserve space. The expenditures in both tables are in nominal dollars to provide a better comparison. |

hydroelectric, geothermal, wind, photovoltaic, or solar thermal
energy. There is a discontinuity in this time series between 1988
and 1989 due to the expanded coverage of non-electric utility use of wood
and waste beginning in 1989. Totals may not equal the sum of the
components due to independent rounding. The table and graph were updated on June 19, 2008. Typically, there are two years between updates. Energy Statistics Home | Contact Us | Conversion Chart | Glossary |
