Top-reporter concentration desk

HILCORP ENERGY dominates the in-state book at 45.1% of reported Alaska CO₂e (7.9M MT of 17.5M MT). Top-three reporters hold 55.3% (HILCORP ENERGY; EXXON MOBIL; GOLDEN VALLEY ELECTRIC ASSOC). Shares use EPA GHGRP facilities sited in AK only, not each parent's company-wide total.

  • Alaska is 0.7% of the 2.57B MT U.S. GHGRP facility rollup across 54 jurisdictions.
  • Leading EPA sector by CO₂e: Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems at 67.4% (11.8M MT across 31 facilities) - orthogonal to the facility-count sector mix below.
  • Trails Maryland by 15K MT on the same state ranking.
  • Leads Nevada by 1.4M MT on the same state ranking.
