About SEDS
The State Energy Data System (SEDS) is the source of the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) comprehensive State energy statistics. EIA’s goal in maintaining SEDS is to create historical time series of energy production, consumption, prices, and expenditures by State that are defined as consistently as possible over time and across sectors for analysis and forecasting purposes.
Dimensions of SEDS Estimates
Consumption
- by State and for the United States
- by energy source
- by sector
- in physical units & Btu
- annual time-series back to 1960
Prices & Expenditures
- by State and for the United States
- by energy source
- by sector
- prices in current dollars per million Btu and expenditures in current dollars
- annual time-series back to 1970
Production
- by State and for the United States
- by energy source
- in physical unites & Btu
- annual time-series back to 1960
While some SEDS data series come directly from surveys conducted by EIA, many are estimated using other available information. These estimations are necessary for the compilation of "total energy" estimates. The data sources and estimation procedures are described in the Technical Notes. We welcome your suggestions on ways to improve our estimation methodologies.

One additional layer of information which could be helpful is showing company specific assets. For example, using the same MSHA controller information to filter coal mines would be very helpful.

This is great! I work in energy education, largely using the topic of the Marcellus Shale as a teachable moment that gets people actually thinking about where their energy comes from. I'll be using the resource often. It'd be even cooler if the map info could be downloaded for use in Google Earth.

I have never found more information in an easier to use interface than I have at this site. What you have done here is amazing. Thank you so much.

The new map is not user friendly for my students. I have used this for a renewable/non-renewable energy project for a few years now and the old maps with the detailed legend of the renewable and non-renewable energy were much more helpful. Where can I find the old version of the state maps?

hope you introduce the country-level portal.

You should always have the option to download in excel. For the screens on the web, the data headings both across the top and down the left hand side should be fixed, while the user scrolls across the page. but you guys do a great job! thanks a lot.

For the price rankings it might be helpful to specify if a high ranking corresponds with high or low prices. Consumers will likely consider lower prices a better thing so may expect that the lowest price state would be ranked #1. If it functions like the other rankings, however, that state would be ranked #50. A short clarification in the sidebar would be helpful.

This interactive energy browser is absolutely awesome. Your website was already the most user-friendly way to sift through our nation's incredibly complex energy portfolio, and it just got easier. Thanks!

I do not like the change. In the past you had a GREAT interactive maps that showed power plant, refineries, etc. These maps were much easier to read and mad sense when printed. Similar maps were available for each state. When you rolled over a power plant or refinery on the map an information box popped up with specific information for that site. The new map format is very hard to read due to the change in symbols and the layering. The information is still great but the maps are not very user friendly. I wish you would change back.

In the main US map, when you hover over a state, it would be nice to see some key points about that state. Also, when I click on a state, it takes a really long time to load the map and then there are tons of icons/symbols---I thought be hovering over them I would be able to see what they mean. I was also hoping to see the county break out/names by state. I hope you will continue to enhance this product. It is a great resource.

I like that the maps are interactive and you can click on icons to get additional details. However, is it possible to extend this functionality to the pipelines and railways?

I liked the old website where we could view maps of each type of energy production and distribution networks on the Profiles of US States page as soon as we pulled it up. Very useful for my Geography class. Now it is much more difficult to find these maps.

I've been using EIA state data since 2006 and have to say that this latest change in format has made things more difficult to navigate. I'm mainly interested in accessing state csv files and it's almost impossible to find them now. And why, when finally finding a state, is that map presented with all the meaningless symbols? Finally, I hope in your reworking of the state data you don't change the codes - such as ESTCB, etc. They may seem arcane to users at first, but work very well after one becomes accustomed to them. I hope I'm not being too critical and this helps. Sincerely, Hans N.

Hi, great website. But, the Ameresco Ox Mountain Plant (Code: 56895) in Half Moon bay has the wrong coordinates listed. The following are the correct coordinates: 37.3, -122.2 Thanks!

the map is hard to navigate. the select and zoom in/out functions are a little strange (and where is the reset button??). it is not clear that the users can click on the individual plants to see their details. and it is not clear either what different levels of color shading means (resource abundance??)
