Overall, the pie charts did not change significantly in the two years given. And residential and commercial were the two sectors employing the most electricity in the survey.
In 2007, the most common electricity uses were residential and commercial, at 27% for each. This remained their position in 2010. However, there were slight changes, in which residential increased to 28% while commercial decreased to 23%. Three sectors stayed unchanged in both years: transport, agriculture, and mining, at 1%, 1%, and 9% in sequence.

In the first year of the survey, although aluminum and manufacturing shared equally proportional, at 12%, in the second year of the survey, they both dropped to 11% and 9%, respectively. In contrast, other metals had a considerable rose from 11% in 2007 to 18% in 2010.
