Here’s another great graph explaining US Energy production and consumption, from the Energy Information Administration. It’s called an Energy Flow Diagram. Numbers are in quadrillion BTU’s. Click on image to enlarge:
We still import 21.72 QBTU of petroleum, about 22% of our total consumption – about what we consume in residential uses. But we also export 13.86 QBTU.
Renewable energy – hydroelectric, biomass, geothermal, solar and wind – amount to about 10% of our total energy consumption. Nuclear 9%, Crude oil 19%, natural gas 28%, and coal 15%.
Here’s another:
And here’s another:
The US produced 15 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in 2016 from shale gas wells, 47% of total gas production. An unknown additional portion of shale gas production was from shale oil wells.
