12 <br />II.6.Energy Information Administration (EIA) Form 861 Data <br />Form EIA-861 collects annual information on electric power industry participants involved <br />in the generation, transmission, distribution, and sale of electric energy in the United <br />States and its territories. <br />In 2014, EIA began publishing reliability statistics in Form EIA-861; therefore, APPA <br />included these statistics in this report for informational purposes. Please note that the <br />following data includes 176 investor-owned, 572 rural cooperative, and 437 public power <br />utilities that were large enough to be required to fill out the full EIA-861 form, and does <br />not include utilities that completed the EIA 861-S form (for smaller entities). Note that the <br />437 participating public power utilities include entities classified by EIA as municipal, <br />political subdivision, and state. In addition, since the collection and release of EIA form <br />data lags by a year, the data provided here is based on 2019 data that was published <br />October 6, 2020. Therefore, we suggest you only use the aggregate statistics contained <br />herein as an informational tool for further comparison of reliability statistics. <br />In Table 12 and Table 13, an entity calculates SAIDI, SAIFI, and determines major eventME <br />days in accordance with the IEEE 1366-2003 or IEEE 1366-2012 standard. <br />Although EIA collected other reliability-related data, the tables below only include SAIDI <br />and SAIFI data.
