2018 Energy Information Administration (EIA) Form 861 Data <br /> Form EIA-861 collects information on the status of electric power industry participants involved in the <br /> generation, transmission, distribution, and sale of electric energy in the United States, its territories, and <br /> Puerto Rico. <br /> EIA surveys electric power utilities annually through EIA Form 861 to collect electric industry data and <br /> subsequently make that data available to the public. In 2014, EIA began publishing reliability statistics in <br /> their survey from utility participants; therefore, the Association included EIA reliability statistics in this <br /> report for informational purposes. Please note that the following data includes investor-owned, rural <br /> cooperative, and public power utilities that were large enough to be required to fill out the full EIA 861, not <br /> the EIA 861-S form (for smaller entities). In addition, since the collection and release of EIA form data lags <br /> by more than a year, the data provided here is based on 2017 data only. Therefore, it is suggested that <br /> the aggregate statistics contained herein be used only as an informational tool for further comparison of <br /> reliability statistics. <br /> In the table, if an entity calculates SAIDI, SAIFI, and determines major event days in accordance with the <br /> IEEE 1366-2003 or IEEE 1366-2012 standard, they are included under the "IEEE Method" columns. If the <br /> entity calculates these values via another method, they are included under the "Other Method" columns. <br /> For more general information on reliability metrics you can see the Association's website at <br /> http://publicpower.org/reliability. Although EIA collected other reliability-related data, the tables below only <br /> include SAIDI and SAIFI data.
