If I'm not mistaken (and I could well be), then the US actually consumes more fossil fuel to generate electricity than it does for transportation . . .
Roughly the same for both: 26.6 quads of oil for transportation, and for electric power 20.5 quads of coal and 6.5 quads of natural gas. Other electric power inputs come from biomass (1.0 quads), oil (1.2 quads) hydroelectricity (3.0) and nuclear (8.0). See p. 17:
