Published by Web Desk Tuesday, August 2, 2016

The USA is one of the biggest producers and consumers of electricity in the world. We have a lot of creative ways of generating power. In Alaska, they draw geothermal power from the Chena Hot Springs plant. Wyoming provided 90% of the coal used in power generation for 8 states in 2013. If you're looking for ethanol producers, look no further than our leader – Iowa!

But did you also know that many of America's sports stadiums have become miniature power plants? In the past, these stadiums sucked so much power off the grid that they were like small cities in their own right. As part of the NFL's efforts to become more green and environmentally friendly, many of their stadiums have been overhauled with solar, wind, and other sources of power generation.

This infographic goes into all of that, and more – it also looks at how power is used in your home, every day!
