Statistics
page provides data on oil production, oil sold, gas
production and gas production including methane, gas sold and
gas sold including methane, methane produced and sold,
CO2 produced and
sold, gas and CO2 sales by operator, oil
sales by operator, oil and gas production value index, oil and
gas prices, oil and gas production, 1999 production sales, and
1999 dollar amounts. Most of the data are available by county.
Some data are available for onscreen viewing; other data are

Bureau
of Reclamation Power Generation Statistics is a database of
net and gross power generation by month for U.S. B.R.
facilities. Data available from 1909 to the present. Consult
the state
listing for the names, locations, and service dates of
powerplants in Colorado.
Energy
Information Agency (EIA) State Energy Profile: Colorado
includes current and historic data on primary energy consumption,
petroleum consumption, consumption by sector, residential use,
commercial use, industrial use, transportation use, electric
utility use, prices, expenditures, and state rankings of
consumption, prices, and expenditures. Each selection presents the
user with summary level information. More detailed information is
available from pull-down menus. Additional information about
Colorado is available from the main State
Energy Data page.
Landfill
Profiles for the State of Colorado Each profile includes
general landfill information (owner, city, county, year open, year
closed, annual acceptance rate in tons and waste in place in
tons). In addition, each profile includes an estimated methane
generation and the potential environmental benefits of using the
methane for electricity generation and with other fuels. According
to the Background
Information, "Once collected, landfill gas can be used as an
energy source for many different applications, including
electricity generation, space heating and cooling, industrial
processes, and vehicle fuels. .... In each of these options, the
methane contained in the recovered landfill gas is consumed,
either through combustion (e.g., use as a fuel, including
upgrading to pipeline quality gas and flaring) or conversion to a
non-greenhouse gas, thereby reducing emissions of methane to the
atmosphere. Moreover, using landfill gas to generate electricity
can displace other fossil fuel use, thereby reducing emissions of
carbon dioxide and other local air pollutants."
