2024

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

Columns
The EIA Utility Identification number.
Two letter US state abbreviation.
Date reported.
EIA short code identifying a balancing authority. May include Canadian and Mexican BAs.
High level categorization of customer type (e.g., commercial, residential).
Business model.
Is the value observed (True) or imputed (False).
Entity type of principal owner.
The type of service the respondent provides to a given customer class.Bundled: both energy and delivery; energy: just the energy consumed; delivery: just the billing and energy delivery services.
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.
The name of the utility.
Number of customers.
Quantity of electricity sold in MWh.
Revenue from electricity sold.
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.

Usage Warnings
The original data is no longer being collected or reported in this way.
Additional Details
The raw 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
NERC region in which the plant is located
Date reported.
The amount of electricity sold for resale purposes. This entry should include sales for resale to power marketers (reported separately in previous years), full and partial requirements customers, firm power customers and nonfirm customers.
The amount of electricity sold to customers purchasing electricity for their own use and not for resale.
Two letter US state abbreviation.
