About These Resources

The job numbers come from the national 2026 U.S. Energy and Employment Report (USEER), which focuses on all energy jobs. The USEER analyzes data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) to track employment across sectors including energy production, transmission, and distribution. In addition, the USEER relies on a unique supplemental survey of business representatives across the U.S. For the 2026 USEER, 41,800 businesses participated in the survey. Taken together, the BLS and survey data provide the most comprehensive calculation of energy-related employment available. The methodology has been used for local, state, and federal energy-related data collection and analysis for more than a decade. See the USEER Appendices for complete methodology details.
