Transportation accounts for approximately 25 percent of total U.S. energy consumption and about 60 percent of U.S. petroleum consumption. Practically all of this energy is in the form of petroleum products with very minor amounts of electric energy and natural gas. Thus, the transportation sector is very important in analyses of energy demand and the potential for energy conservation.
