Demographics Energy Government Transportation

Connecticut Electricity Industry Summary \| Commercial Energy Statistics \| Industrial Energy Consumption Statistics \| Residential Energy Statistics \| Connecticut Transportation Energy Statistics \| Pollution Summary \| Carbon Footprint Connecticut has a per capita Carbon Score of 44. Connecticut has the 29th highest resident population. Each Connecticut resident, per population average, produces approximately 12 Tons of Carbon Dioxide each year. Connecticut has a total Carbon output state rank of #40, and is the #40th highest Carbon Dioxide polluting state in the United States. Connecticut has no fossil fuel reserves but does have minor renewable energy resources, including wind power potential and fuelwood resources in the northern part of the State. Connecticut's economy is not energy intensive, and industry is the State's smallest energy-consuming sector. The residential sector leads State energy consumption.
