Demographics Energy Government Transportation

Maryland Electricity Industry Summary \| Commercial Energy Statistics \| Industrial Energy Consumption Statistics \| Residential Energy Statistics \| Maryland Transportation Energy Statistics \| Pollution Summary \| Carbon Footprint Maryland has a per capita Carbon Score of 40. Maryland has the 19th highest resident population. Each Maryland resident, per population average, produces approximately 15 Tons of Carbon Dioxide each year. Maryland has a total Carbon output state rank of #29, and is the #29th highest Carbon Dioxide polluting state in the United States. Maryland has few energy resources. Minor coal reserves are found in the Appalachian Mountains in western Maryland. Wind power potential is found in the Chesapeake Bay, off the Atlantic Coast, and in the Appalachian Mountains. The Susquehanna River in the north is a source of hydroelectric power. Maryland's economy is not energy-intensive, and per capita energy consumption is low.
