Usage Warnings
Contains information from multiple raw inputs.
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.
Additional Details
This table differs from out_ferc714__summarized_demand in that it also includes a geometry column describing the respondent's service territory in each year. These service territories are based on the counties that the corresponding EIA-861 respondent reported serving in that year. There is sometimes ambiguity as to whether a FERC-714 respondent should be interpreted as an individual utility or a balancing authority. The respodent_type column indicates which type of entity has been assumed in determining the service territory from EIA-861 data.
