| Energy Mix: Worldwide | ||
| Energy Mix: Worldwide "Evolution from 1971 to 2001 of World Total Final Consumption by Region" | 52.3% of worldwide enregy consumption is accounted for by the OECD. Asia and China are in third and fourth place, respectively. | Diagrams from the report: "Key World Energy Statistics" of the International Energy Agency Available online at: http://library.iea.org/dbtw-wpd/textbase/nppdf/free/2003/key2003.pdf |
| "Evolution from 1971 to 2001 of World Total Final Consumption by Fuel" | 43% of worldwide energy consumption is accounteed for by oil. Only 7.4% of worlwide energy consumption is accounted for by coal. | |
| "Evolution from 1971 to 2001 of World Total Primary Energy Supply by Fuel" | 35% of the worldwide primary energy supply is accounted for by oil. Coal comes in second place, making up 23.3% of world primary energy supply. | |

| "World Coal Supply" | Demand for coal in Africa and Asia is projected to increase by 2.3% annually until 2030. In contrast, coal production in the EU during this time will decrease. | Excerpt from the publication World Energy, Technology and Climate Policy Outlook (WETO) Publication of the European Commission "Energy and Technology Trends to 2030", p. 44 Available online at: http://europa.eu.int/comm/research/energy/pdf/weto_final_report.pdf |

| "World Energy Consumption, 1970-2025" | In 2025, worldwide energy consumption will have reached 640 billion Btus. | Diagram from the report: International Energy Outlook 2003 Energy Information Administration of the U.S. State Department http://www.eia/doe.gov/oiaf/ieo/figure_12.html |
| Energy Mix of the United States | ||
| "Energy Consumption" | Energy demand is expected to rise from 97.7 billion Btus in 2002 to 136.7 billion Btus in 2025. | Excerpt from: Annual Energy Outlook 2003 with Projections to 2025 Energy Information Administration of the U.S. State Department http://www.eia.doe.gov/oiaf/aeo/index.html#production |
| "Total Energy Production and Consumption, 1970-2025" "Energy Consumption by Fuel, 1970-2025" "Total Energy Supply and Disposition in the AEO2004 Reference Case: Summary, 2001-2025" |
Energy consumption rises faster than energy production. Oil consumption will rise faster than natural gas and coal consumption. Energy consumption, production and imports increase sharply while energy intensity decreases. |
