Summary

Based on data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and supplementary surveys of tens of thousands of U.S. energy sector employers, the U.S. Energy and Employment Report (USEER) is a comprehensive summary of national, state and county-level energy jobs, reporting by industry, technology, and region with data on unionization rates, demographics, and employer perspectives on growth and hiring.  The USEER began in 2016 to better track and understand employment within key energy sectors. The study combines surveys of businesses with public labor market data to produce estimates of employment and workforce characteristics.

The USEER tracks energy employment across three energy production sectors (Fuels, Electric Power Generation, and Transmission, Distribution, and Storage) and two end use sectors (Energy Efficiency and Motor Vehicles and Component Parts).
The 2025 USEER includes data on wages and employer benefits, allowing policymakers to understand how the U.S. energy sector provides stable, high paying employment opportunities to hardworking Americans.

The energy sector employed 8.5 million workers in 2024, accounting for 5.4% of all jobs in the U.S.
