Announcing EIA's Application Programming Interface (API)

The US Energy Information Administration is committed to making its data available through an Application Programming Interface (API) to better serve our customers. APIs allows computers to more easily access our public data. By making EIA data available is this machine readable format, the creativity in the private, the non-profit, and the public sectors can be harnessed to find new ways to analyze and create added-value services powered by public data.

As of September 21, 2012, EIA's API is released as a beta product. It currently contains 465,000 electricity series. As we add petroleum, natural gas, international, and state energy estimates over the coming months, this number will swell to over a million series.

The EIA API is offered as a free public service, although registration is required. The registration and compliance with the API Terms of Service will allow EIA to monitor usage and ensure service availability. The API is provided free of charge and should be used in compliance with our Copyrights and Reuse page.
