Record fields
One row per Idaho electric utility per year, from Form EIA-861's Sales to Ultimate Customers survey.
year: Calendar year of the survey.utility_id: EIA's Utility Number for this utility.utility: Utility name as EIA-861 prints it.ownership: Ownership type as EIA-861 prints it (Investor Owned, Cooperative, Municipal, Political Subdivision, Federal, or, for one billing-only solar company, Behind the Meter).residential_customers: Residential customer count. Left blank for a short-form utility, which reports no sector split; see the dataset caveats.residential_price_cents_per_kwh: Residential revenue divided by residential sales, cents per kWh, two decimals.commercial_price_cents_per_kwh: Commercial revenue divided by commercial sales, cents per kWh, two decimals; left blank for a short-form utility and for a utility with no commercial sales that year.industrial_price_cents_per_kwh: Industrial revenue divided by industrial sales, cents per kWh, two decimals; left blank for a short-form utility and for a utility with no industrial sales that year.total_customers: All-sector customer count.total_sales_mwh: All-sector sales, megawatthours.short_form: True when this row is sourced from the abbreviated 861S survey rather than the standard Sales to Ultimate Customers survey.
Caveats
- Covers 2015-2025: 2014 and earlier ship in the legacy Excel binary (.xls) format, which this puller does not read.
- A utility's price is its average revenue per unit sold (revenue divided by sales), not its tariff rate schedule; a residential customer's actual rate depends on usage tier, time of use and any riders.
- A utility that files the abbreviated 861S short form (most of Idaho's smaller municipal and cooperative systems) reports one undivided total revenue, sales and customer count, with no residential, commercial or industrial split. No such split is estimated for it: this dataset's two measures below need a reported sector, so a short-form utility appears in the records table only, with its sector figures left blank.
- EIA's own 'Adjustment' reconciling entry (Utility Number 99999) is excluded; it is a balancing-authority-level correction, not a utility.
- Only Schedule 4 Part A (full-service, bundled) rows are kept; no Idaho utility reports a Part B, C or D (energy-only, delivery-only or power-marketer) row in this span.
