Dispersed in-state reporter mix
CONSOL ENERGY is the largest single reporter at 5.5% of Pennsylvania CO₂e (6.5M MT), but the top three still account for only 15.3% across 168 parent companies. Shares use EPA GHGRP facilities sited in PA only, not each parent's company-wide total.
- Pennsylvania is 4.6% of the 2.57B MT U.S. GHGRP facility rollup across 54 jurisdictions.
- Leading EPA sector by CO₂e: Power Plants at 65.5% (76.8M MT across 87 facilities) - orthogonal to the facility-count sector mix below.
- Trails Louisiana by 31.7M MT on the same state ranking.
- Leads Ohio by 1.2M MT on the same state ranking.

Which companies combine scale and emissions?
Each point is a leading Pennsylvania reporter. The crosshairs mark the median among the companies shown, so the chart distinguishes a larger facility footprint from a higher emissions total.
This is a comparison of the leading 12 reporters displayed above, not a measure of production, population, or total company-wide emissions outside Pennsylvania.
