1Metric tons of carbon dioxide can be converted to metric tons of carbon equivalent by multiplying by
12/44.		 7The plastics component of municipal solid waste.
2Commercial sector, including commercial combined-heat-and-power (CHP) and commercial
electricity-only plants.		 8Emissions from energy consumption (for electricity and a small amount of useful thermal output) in the
electric power sector are allocated to the end-use sectors in proportion to each sector's share of total
electricity retail sales (see Table 8.9).
3Industrial sector, including industrial combined-heat-and-power (CHP) and industrial electricity-only
plants.		 – – = Not applicable.  
4Electricity-only and combined-heat-and-power (CHP) plants within the NAICS 22 category whose
primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and heat, to the public.		 Notes:  ·  Data are preliminary estimates.  ·  Emissions from blast furnace gas, propane gas, and other
manufactured and waste gases derived from fossil fuels are counted under their primary energy source—i.e.,
petroleum, natural gas, or coal.  ·  See Note 2, "Classification of Power Plants Into Energy-Use Sectors," at
end of Section 8.  ·  Totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding.
