Energy Footprint

Illustration of an energy footprint of the Chemicals Energy Footprint: NAICS 325 Chemicals Total Energy Input: 5074 Trillion Btu. This diagram shows how Fossil Energy Supply and a Utility Power Plant creates Energy Supply, then travels within the Plant Boundary into Central Energy Generation/Utilities, then Energy Distribution, then Energy Consumption, and finally Process Energy Use, all the while recycling energy and have energy losses.
