Blue Dragon Energy & Environmental Blog 2.0: Blog Topic Statistics


     With the number of posts in this blog approaching 1000, I thought I would analyze some statistics regarding topics. My own classification scheme may differ from others. Many topics overlap with posts fitting multiple categories, usually around two on average. Some posts fit as many as four or five categories. Some categories are incomplete. The Energy Management and Efficiency category could likely be doubled or tripled since I quickly added it recently, for example. Most categories are complete. I was curious how graphed results would look. Some topics are broader than others. Some can be split up in different ways. My categorization has my own biases. I have worked as an oil & gas exploration and production geologist. Thus, oil & gas is one of the biggest in terms of the number of topics. I was surprised that Climate Science & Policy had so many posts, but it is likely due to it being a broad topic and timely topic. If I had combined Power Grid Markets and Policy and Power Grid Technology, it would have been 74 and the biggest topic. Of course, if I had combined the three Oil & Gas topics, they would have had well over 130. It would be 150, but several overlap. This blog also has linked lists of posts in each topic and is searchable with the search bar. I will likely keep this Excel file updated and perhaps post it periodically, perhaps annually, if I keep posting. 

     The first chart is the number of posts by topic arranged alphabetically, and the second chart is the number of posts by topic from most to least.
