New York's Carbon Footprint


New York Electricity Industry Summary Statistics (2005)
Demographics Energy Government Transportation

New York Electricity Industry Summary \| Commercial Energy Statistics \| Industrial Energy Consumption Statistics \| Residential Energy Statistics \| New York Transportation Energy Statistics \| Pollution Summary \| Carbon Footprint New York has a per capita Carbon Score of 48. New York has the 3rd highest resident population. Each New York resident, per population average, produces approximately 11 Tons of Carbon Dioxide each year. New York has a total Carbon output state rank of #8, and is the #8th highest Carbon Dioxide polluting state in the United States. New York has minor reserves of oil and gas, found primarily in the far western part of the State approaching Lake Erie. Although New York's fossil fuel resources are limited, the State possesses considerable renewable energy potential. Several powerful rivers, including the Niagara and the Hudson, provide New York with some of the greatest hydropower resources in the country, and New York's Catskill and Adirondack Mountains offer substantial wind power potential. In addition, parts of New York are densely forested, allowing for potential fuelwood harvesting. Although New York's total energy consumption is among the highest in the United States, per capita energy consumption is among the lowest, due in part to the region's widely used mass transportation systems. The commercial and residential sectors lead State energy demand; the transportation and industrial sectors are also major consumers. EIA Release Date Information for New York: US Department of Energy
