The time line shows the itemized energy consumption of U.S.transit traffic from 1993 to 2007. In 1995, 17 trillion Btu were consumed in U.S. transit traffic powered by electricity.
Itemized energy consumption of U.S. transit traffic from 1993 to 2007
(in trillion Btu)
* Diesel, gasoline and other nondiesel fuels such as liquefied natural gas, methanol, and propane, and compressed natural gas.
The following conversion rates were used:
Compressed natural gas = 138,700 Btu/gallon,
automotive gasoline = 125,000 Btu/gallon,
diesel motor fuel = 138,700 Btu/gallon,
natural gas = 1,031 Btu/ft3,
electricity 1 kWh = 3,412 Btu, negating electrical system losses. To include approximate electrical system losses, multiply this conversion factor by 3.
