Additional Details
The EIA861 demand-side management (DSM) table (split into three normalized tables in PUDL) contain data through 2012. The form changed in 2013 and split the contents of the DSM table into energy efficiency and demand response tables. Though similar, the information collected before and after 2012 are not comparable enough to combine into a singular, continuous table. We were discouraged from doing so after contacting a representative from EIA.
Columns
Demand reduction actually achieved by demand response activities. Measured at the time of the company's annual system peak hour.
EIA short code identifying a balancing authority. May include Canadian and Mexican BAs.
High level categorization of customer type (e.g., commercial, residential).
Total cost of customer incentives in a given report year. Customer incentives are the total financial value provided to a customer for program participation, whether, for example, cash payment, or lowered tariff rates relative to non-participants, in-kind services (e.g. design work), or other benefits directly provided to the customer for their program participation.
Number of customers.
The energy savings incurred in a given reporting year by participation in demand response programs.
Additional costs.
The total demand savings that could occur at the time of the system peak hour assuming all demand response is called.
Date reported.
Whether the reported information comes from the short form. In the case of form EIA 861, a shorter version of the form was created in 2012 to reduce respondent burden on smaller utilities and increase our processing efficiency.
Two letter US state abbreviation.
The EIA Utility Identification number.
The name of the utility.
Maturity of the source data published by EIA that is reflected in this record. EIA releases data incrementally over time, including monthly updates, annual year-to-date updates, provisional early releases of annual data, and final annual release data that is not expected to change further. Records sourced from multiple upstream EIA datasets may have no well defined data maturity. Records whose values have been inferred within PUDL will also have no data maturity.
