Quarterly time series of individuals who filed FERC EQR for a company in a given quarter.

Most-recent data:

Processing:

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

Source:

FERC Form 920 -- Electric Quarterly Report (EQR)

Primary key:

This table has no primary key. The primary key ought to be ['year_quarter', 'company_id_ferc', 'filer_unique_id'], where filer_unique_id is an employee-level ID. However, a handful of companies have erroneously reported the same filer_unique_id for multiple employees, resulting in duplicate records. In other cases, there appear to be multiple filings in a given quarter for the same company and filer, resulting in additional duplicates. Thus, there is no reliable natural primary key for the identity table.

Usage Warnings

  • This table is experimental and/or a work in progress and may change in the future.

  • FERC data is notoriously difficult to extract cleanly, and often contains free-form strings, non-labeled total rows and lack of IDs. See Notable Irregularities for details.
