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.

Industry Classification System) 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.
