Does anybody know how much power is lost due to various losses in power lines, transformers, etc. between generator and consumer? In 1995 the losses of electric transmission and distribution in the U.S.A were about 7%, which means a wasted energy of about 80TWh, which is an equivalent of about 37MtC (million tons of CO2). 60% of the losses developed along the lines and 40% at the transformers.
