Kansas Electricity Industry Summary | Commercial Energy Statistics | Industrial Energy Consumption Statistics | Residential Energy Statistics | Kansas Transportation Energy Statistics | Pollution Summary | Carbon Footprint

Kansas has a per capita Carbon Score of 12. Kansas has the 32nd highest resident population. Each Kansas resident, per population average, produces approximately 30 Tons of Carbon Dioxide each year. Kansas has a total Carbon output state rank of #26, and is the #26th highest Carbon Dioxide polluting state in the United States.

Kansas has substantial fossil fuel reserves found in several basins, mostly in the south. The Hugoton Gas Area, located in the southwestern Kansas, is the fourth largest natural gas field in the United States. Minor reserves of bituminous coal are found in the Cherokee basin in the southeastern corner of the State. In addition to fossil fuel resources, Kansas's flat plains offer some of the highest wind power potential in the country, and its cornfields offer a major feedstock for ethanol production. The industrial sector leads Kansas's energy consumption.
