core_eia860__assn_yearly_boiler_emissions_control_equipment

package: pudl

Association table providing connections between EIA boiler IDs and emissions control IDs for NOx, SO2, mercury, and particulate monitoring.

Most-recent data:

2024

Processing:

Data has been cleaned and organized into well-modeled tables that serve as building blocks for downstream wide tables and analyses.

Source:

EIA Form 860 -- Annual Electric Generator Report

Primary key:

report_date, plant_id_eia, boiler_id, emission_control_id_type, emission_control_id_eia

Usage Warnings

  • The relationship between the IDs is sometimes many to many.

Columns
report_date

Date reported.

plant_id_eia

The unique six-digit facility identification number, also called an ORISPL, assigned by the Energy Information Administration.

boiler_id

Alphanumeric boiler ID.

emission_control_id_type

The type of emissions control id: SO2, NOx, particulate, or mercury.

emission_control_id_eia

The emission control ID used to collect SO2, NOx, particulate, and mercury emissions data. This column should be used in conjunction with emissions_control_type as it's not guaranteed to be unique.

data_maturity

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.
