* Diesel, gasoline and other nondiesel fuels such as liquefied natural gas, methanol, and propane, and compressed natural gas.
The following conversion rates were used:
Compressed natural gas = 138,700 Btu/gallon,
automotive gasoline = 125,000 Btu/gallon,
diesel motor fuel = 138,700 Btu/gallon,
natural gas = 1,031 Btu/ft3,
electricity 1 kWh = 3,412 Btu, negating electrical system losses. To include approximate electrical system losses, multiply this conversion factor by 3.
