View help for Summary
This data deposit constructs data on monthly generation costs and capacities in the United States from 1999-2012 in preparation for their use in "Imperfect Markets versus Imperfect Regulation in U.S. Electricity Generation" (openicpsr-115467).
It builds panel data files from the following EIA forms:
"Form EIA-860: Annual Electric Generator Report"
"Form EIA-861: Annual Electric Power Industry Report"
"Form EIA-767: Annual Steam-Electric Plant Operation and Design Report"
"Form EIA-923: Power Plant Operations Report"
"Form EIA-759/906/920/923: Power Plant Report"
"Form EIA-423: Monthly Cost and Quality of Fuels for Electric Plants Report"
and the EPA's Continuous Emissions Monitor System.
It constructs a crosswalk that connects the EPA's boilers to the EIA's generator identifiers.
