1 Total capacity whose primary energy source is landfill gas or MSW. 
2 Agriculture byproducts/crops, sludge waste, and other biomass solids, liquids and gases. 
3 Black liquor, and wood/woodwaste solids and liquids. 
MSW = Municipal Solid Waste.
PV = Photovoltaic.
- = No data reported.
Notes: Totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding. Revisions to biomass capacity removed tires from renewable waste energy. The electric power sector comprises electricity-only and combined-heat-power (CHP) plants within North American Classification System (NAICS) 22 category whose primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and heat, to the public.
