Kerosene ($34.16) had the highest price among the petroleum products in 2023, followed by aviation gasoline ($32.62), distillate fuel ($28.45), motor gasoline ($28.29), jet fuel ($20.75), propane ($16.73), and residual fuel ($17.90).

From 2022 to 2023, all fuel prices fell. Distillate fuel decreased 28.5 percent, motor gasoline decreased 28.3 percent, jet fuel decreased 19.9 percent, propane decreased 18.2 percent, kerosene decreased 12.3 percent, residual fuel decreased 10.2 percent, and aviation gasoline decreased 9.4 percent.

Expenditures on petroleum decreased to $6,837.0 million ($6.8 billion) in 2023, which was a 15.3–percent decrease from 2022 expenditures of $8,067.3 million ($8.1 billion).

The transportation sector spent over three–quarters (83 percent) of the total expenditures. The industrial sector spent 14 percent, the commercial sector spent 1.5 percent, and the residential sector spent 1.3 percent, while the electric power sector spent less than 1 percent (0.18%). (Figure 1)

Diesel fuel's monthly consumption in February of 2026 was above February 2025's (last year's) consumption, at the upper boundary of the five–year range, and above the five–year average consumption. (Figure 1)

The units generating electricity are listed in the table below, each with unit ID, capacity, prime mover, energy source, year of commercial operation, status, number of wind turbines if applicable, and the generation sector. The key to the abbreviations is below the table.

This report shows the new generation that became commercially operable from 1915 to 1940 and then during each decade since then. Details about the generation includes energy source, number of units/wind turbines, the nameplate capacity, the summer capacity, and the winter capacity.

From 1915 to 1970, an increasing number of new units were brought on line each decade.

As of 2024, Nebraska had 1,753 generating units with a total of 10,714,400 kilowatts (or 10,714.4 megawatts) capacity.
