Quick Facts
  • Alaska’s proved crude oil reserves of 3.2 billion barrels are the fourth largest of any state. However, many of Alaska’s oil fields are mature, and in 2023 the state’s oil production averaged 426,000 barrels per day, the lowest level since 1976.
  • Alaska ranks fourth in the nation in natural gas gross withdrawals, most of which are reinjected into oil fields to help maintain crude oil production rates.
  • Many rural communities in Alaska rely primarily on diesel-fueled electric generators for power, and Alaska ranks second only to Hawaii in the share of its total electricity–slightly more than one-tenth in 2023–generated from petroleum.
  • Alaska’s per capita energy consumption is the highest in the nation in part because of the state’s small population, harsh winters, and energy-intensive industries.
  • In 2023, Alaska generated about one-fourth of its total electricity from renewable energy sources. The state has a non-binding goal to generate 50% of its electricity from renewable and alternative energy sources by 2025.

Washington leads the nation in electricity generation from hydroelectric power and accounted for about 31% of the nation’s total hydroelectric generation in 2022.48 The state was second in the nation, after Texas, in utility-scale renewable generation from all sources. In 2022, Washington produced one-tenth of the nation’s total renewable-sourced utility-scale electricity generation

In 2022, hydroelectric power accounted for 67% of Washington’s total electricity net generation from both utility-scale (1 megawatt or larger) and small-scale (less than 1 megawatt) facilities.22 Washington typically contributes between one-fourth and one-third of all conventional hydroelectric generation in the nation annually, and 9 of the state’s 10 largest power plants by capacity and 7 of the 10 by actual generation are hydroelectric facilities.

Washington has no natural gas reserves or production.93 However, the state has one underground natural gas storage field, the Jackson Prairie Gas Storage Facility located in western Washington. It has a total storage capacity of about 47 billion cubic feet.94,95,96 Canada supplies most of the natural gas that Washington uses. Almost two-thirds of the natural gas that enters the state comes from Idaho and most of that is originally from Canada
