The main focus of the article is on the energy consumption in Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) from the viewpoint of its distribution on individual blocks, systems or devices. Conventional systems were taken into account, and additionally a few non-standard plants. To develop energy distribution diagrams archival data from several Polish conventional plants were used, and, additionally, complimentary data from a few non-conventional WWTPs from the USA. During development of the detailed energy usage diagram, a few methods were elaborated with varying degrees of accuracy, allowing estimation of proper results even with incomplete data. These methods were compared with available literature and methods currently used. Based on the above materials, a compact summary was developed, showing the distribution of the energy consumption of the wastewater treatment plants with a biological stage contaminant removal
