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 861 -- Annual Electric Power Industry Report

Primary key:

This table has no primary key. The primary key would have been: utility_id_eia, state, report_date, nerc_region, and rtos_of_operation, but there are nulls in the state column across several years of reporting.

Columns
nerc_region

NERC region in which the plant is located

report_date

Date reported.

rtos_of_operation

The ISOs/RTOs, in which the respondent conducts operations.

state

Two letter US state abbreviation.

utility_id_eia

The EIA Utility Identification number.

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.
