Energy Fact Sheets

MIT Energy Club Fact Sheets contribute to the Club’s mission of fact-based analysis and education by providing readers with an interesting set of raw facts on energy in the US and global contexts. Each Fact Sheet sketches out the significance on a major energy source, end-use sector, or key technology. We try to pack as much useful information as possible onto each sheet, though it is impossible to include all relevant data in a single page. References are listed on the reverse of each Fact Sheet, providing a useful starting point for further reading.

MIT Energy Club Fact Sheets are compiled by volunteers from the MIT energy community and are reviewed by experts prior to publication, to ensure accuracy. We welcome your comments and suggestions for additional Fact Sheets: please email factsheets@mit.edu.
