This page brings together public data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Louisiana equipment numbers come from the 2020 Residential Energy Consumption Survey state tables, published March 2023. National electricity and household AC numbers are from the agency’s April 2022 analysis of that same survey.
Household equipment categories can overlap. Like, a home might have both central AC and a window unit, so don’t add those percentages together.
