transportation and commercial sectors were the next largest emitters, accounting for <br />approximately 31.6 and 18.0 percent of the total community emissions, respectively. <br /> <br />All of the residential emissions come from the consumption of natural gas usage at residences <br />within the University City boundaries and from the consumption of electricity that is generated <br />(by AmerenUE) outside of University City, but is used within city limits. The majority of the <br />community’s transportation emissions are the result of gasoline consumption in privately-owned <br />vehicles traveling on local roads and interstate I-170. <br /> <br />The transportation sector was the largest energy user; using approximately 2,280,223 MMBtu’s <br />in 2005. The Residential sector was the second largest energy user; using approximately <br />2,163,383 MMBtu’s in 2005. <br /> <br />Please refer to the Community Emissions Inventory on page 14, for more information. <br /> <br />Table 1: Summary Report of Community GHG Emissions by Sector, 2005 <br />₂₂ <br />CO COe <br />₂₄₂ <br />NO CH COe Energy <br />Sector <br />(metric (metric <br />(MMBtu) <br /> <br />(kg)(kg)(%) <br /> <br />tons)tons) <br /> <br />Residential 234,101 2,696 9,444 235,136 44.8 2,163,383 <br />Commercial 93,976 1,311 2,512 94,435 18.0 640,540 <br />Industrial 5,789 74 78 5,814 1.1 45,694 <br />Transportation 162,438 10,170 8,144 165,762 31.6 2,280,223 <br />iii <br />Waste 0 0 794,648 13,216 3.2 N/A <br />ii <br />Other 6,453 30 0 6,453 1.2 N/A <br />Total <br />502,757 14,252 814,826 514,363 100.0 5,129,840 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />2010-2011 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory, City of University City, MO 6 <br /> <br /> <br />
