U.S. nuclear energy consumption 1998-2017
Nuclear energy consumption in the U.S. from 1998 to 2017 (in million metric tons of oil equivalent)
This statistic represents nuclear energy consumption in the United States between 1998 and 2017. The data are based on gross generation and not accounting for cross-border electricity supply. The figures were converted on the basis of thermal equivalence assuming 38 percent conversion efficiency in a modern thermal power station. The U.S. consumed about 191.7 million metric tons of oil equivalent in 2017.
