a Total capacity whose primary energy source is landfill gas or MSW.
bAgriculture byproducts/crops, sludge waste and other biomass solids, liquids and gases.
c Black liquor, and wood/woodwaste solids and liquids.
PV=Photovoltaic.
MSW=Municipal Solid Waste.
* =Less than 500 kilowatts.
Note: Revisions to biomass capacity removed tires from renewable waste energy. The electric power sector comprises electricity-only and combined-heat-power (CHP) plants within North American Classification System (NAICS) 22 category whose primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and heat, to the public. Dash indicates the state has no data to report for that energy source. Totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding.
