Form EIA-906 Database
Monthly Nonutility Power Plant Data

 

Note: Files for January 2004 and later do not include data for combined heat and power plants. This data is available from the combined Excel file posted on the main EIA-906 and EIA-920 Databases page.

This is a nonutility electric data file that includes monthly information such as net generation, fuel consumption, prime mover and fuel type. The data sources are the surveys Form EIA-906, "Power Plant Report," and the discontinued Form EIA-900, "Monthly Nonutility Power Plant Report."

Beginning with 1999, this file contains monthly data submitted by those respondents required to file monthly survey responses, and does not include the factors to inflate to the entire nonutility industry. The current year's file will be a "year-to-date" file.

The self-extracting zip file expands into:
  • 1 DBF file: F906nonutilyyyy.dbf* and

  • 1 ASCII text file: F906nonutillayoutyyyy.txt.*

*Note: Substitute the applicable year for "yyyy" in the file name.

To expand the file, type F906nonutilyyyy.exe* from a DOS window, or double click on the file name from File Manager in Windows 3x or Windows Explorer in either Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, XP, or ME. Or, click Start, then Run, then select name of .EXE file to open, then "OK." (Requires 2 megs space).
