Demographics Energy Government Transportation

Maine Electricity Industry Summary \| Commercial Energy Statistics \| Industrial Energy Consumption Statistics \| Residential Energy Statistics \| Maine Transportation Energy Statistics \| Pollution Summary \| Carbon Footprint Maine has a per capita Carbon Score of 33. Maine has the 40th highest resident population. Each Maine resident, per population average, produces approximately 18 Tons of Carbon Dioxide each year. Maine has a total Carbon output state rank of #43, and is the #43rd highest Carbon Dioxide polluting state in the United States. Maine has no fossil fuel reserves but has substantial renewable energy potential. The State's numerous rivers, forests, and windy areas provide the potential for hydroelectric, wood-fired, and wind-powered generation. Due to its energy-intensive forest products industry, Maine is the only New England State in which industry is the leading energy-consuming sector.
