- US residential sector total energy consumption equaled 1.6 quadrillion Btu, an 18% decrease from the total of 2.0 quadrillion Btu in March 2015.
- Electricity retail sales and electrical system energy losses accounted for 61% of residential sector total energy consumption.
- Natural gas accounted for 29% of residential sector total energy consumption, petroleum accounted for 6%, and renewable energy accounted for 4%.
