More than 60% of the total can be attributed to just three industries: Power, Industrial Manufacturing, and Oil & Gas Production.

Texas alone accounts for $12.71 billion of the $92.42 billion U.S. total. Much of its activity is fueled by the boom in the Power, Oil & Gas Production, Petroleum Refining and Terminals industries along the U.S. Gulf Coast.
