Monthly Energy Review

March 2025 PDF | previous editions
Release Date: March 26, 2025 Next Release Date: April 24, 2025

A publication of recent and historical U.S. energy statistics. This publication includes total energy production, consumption, stocks, and trade; energy prices; overviews of petroleum, natural gas, coal, electricity, nuclear energy, renewable energy, and carbon dioxide emissions; and data unit conversions values.

Each month, most MER tables and figures present data for a new month. These data are usually preliminary (and sometimes estimated or forecasted) and likely to be revised the following month. The first dissemination of most annual data is also preliminary. It is often based on monthly estimates and is likely to be revised later that year after final data are published from sources, according to source data revision policies and publication schedules. In addition, EIA may revise historical data when a major revision in a source publication is needed, when new data sources become available, or when estimation methodologies are improved. A record of current and historical changes to MER data is available on the What's New in the Monthly Energy Review—Content Changes webpage.

    • We revised world population statistics back to 1971, gross domestic product statistics back to 2019, and gross output statistics back to 1997, and we included data for 2024 in Population, U.S. gross domestic product, and U.S. gross output (Table C1). Revisions affect data in Primary energy consumption, energy expenditures, and carbon dioxide emissions indicators (Table 1.7).
    • We revised sectoral consumption data for hydrocarbon gas liquids and distillate fuel oil in Petroleum Consumption by Sector (Table 3.7a, Table 3.7b, Table 3.7c), as well as heat content values for hydrocarbon gas liquids and distillate fuel oil (Table 3.8a, Table 3.8b, Table 3.8c) for 2023-2024. The revisions affect data in Energy consumption by sector, Environment, and Approximate heat content of petroleum consumption and fuel ethanol (Table A3).
