Group Project

How Has Energy Consumption Changed Over Time?

Participants: Allyson Taylor, Luke Ellison, & James Martin

##Aims:

  • AIM 1: Analyze the energy consumption data between the dates of 1960-2017 by sector (industrial, commercial, transportation, and residential)

- AIM 2: Look at how energy consumption by sector has changed over time.

- AIM 3: Analyze how the consumption of different energy types has changed over time.

- AIM 4: Utilize Analysis tools such as : Python | JavaScript | Toast UI Chart | CSV | Json - AIM 5: Provide data on energy consumption around the U.S.

Impact and Intended Results

According to eig.gov, in 2017 the U.S. total primary energy consumption was about 98 quadrillion British thermal units (BTU), which was about 17% of the worlds 582 quadrillion British thermal units (BTU). The different types of unites include:

  • Coal
  • Motor Gasoline
  • Distillate Fuel Oil
  • Jet Fuel
  • Other Petroleum
  • Nuclear Electric Power
  • Hydroelectric Power
  • Biomass
  • Natural Gas
  • Net Electricity Imports
  • Net Interstate Flow of Electricity
  • Other Renewables

Our goal is to provide data regarding energy consumption by using CSVs from: https://www.eia.gov/state/seds/seds-data-complete.php#CompleteDataFile
