Washington & Jefferson College Energy Index

The Washington & Jefferson College Energy Index is an index measuring American energy independence. The Index describes the amount of energy produced in America versus the total energy consumption in America. Regional figures are produced, and historical figures have been developed back to 1949.

The Index is authored by Professors Leslie Dunn and Robert Dunn, of the Washington & Jefferson College Department of Economics and Business. The Index utilizes publicly available energy data, analyzed with a proprietary algorithm. Additionally, the energy index has also been used to analyze more local energy use, including Washington & Jefferson College energy use in dormitories from 2001-2012.

The index is reproduced as an infographic by the Associated Press for national distribution.

The Index was unveiled in 2012's W&J Energy Summit, with Susan Eisenhower, of The Eisenhower Institute, and journalist Eleanor Clift leading the discussions.
