Section 7: Electricity.[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]Note. Classification of Power Plants Into Energy-Use Sectors. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA (Electronic Industries Alliance, Arlington, VA, www.eia.org) A membership organization founded in 1924 as the Radio Manufacturing Association. It sets standards for consumer products and electronic components. ) classifies power plants (both electricity-only and combined-heat-and-power plants) into energy-use sectors based on the North American North American named after North America. North American blastomycosis see North American blastomycosis. North American cattle tick see boophilusannulatus. Industry Classification System (NAICS NAICS North American Industry Classification System ), which replaced the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system in 1997. Plants with a NAICS code of 22 are assigned as·sign tr.v. as·signed, as·sign·ing, as·signs 1. To set apart for a particular purpose; designate: assigned a day for the inspection. 2. to the Electric Power Sector. Those with NAICS codes beginning with 11 (agriculture, forestry forestry, the management of forest lands for wood, water, wildlife, forage, and recreation. Because the major economic importance of the forest lies in wood and wood products, forestry has been chiefly concerned with timber management, especially reforestation, , fishing, and hunting); 21 (mining, including oil and gas extraction extraction /ex·trac·tion/ (eks-trak´shun) 1. the process or act of pulling or drawing out. 2. the preparation of an extract. ); 23 (construction); 31-33 (manufacturing); 2212 (natural gas distribution); and 22131 (water supply and irrigation irrigation, in agriculture, artificial watering of the land. Although used chiefly in regions with annual rainfall of less than 20 in. (51 cm), it is also used in wetter areas to grow certain crops, e.g., rice. systems) are assigned to the Industrial Sector. Those with all other codes are assigned to the Commercial Sector. Form EIA-860, "Annual Electric Generator generator, in electricity, machine used to change mechanical energy into electrical energy.

electricity, or electricity and heat, to the public. Through 1988,
data are for electric utilities only; beginning in 1989, data are
for electric utilities and independent power producers.
(b) Commercial combined-heat-and-power (CHP) and commercial

(c) Industrial combined-heat-and-power (CHP) and industrial
electricity-only plants. Through 1988, data are for industrial
hydroelectric power only.
(d) Electricity transmitted across U.S. borders. Net imports equal
imports minus exports.
(e) Transmission and distribution losses (electricity losses that
occur between the point of generation and delivery to the
customer). See Note 2, "Electrical System Energy Losses," at end of
Section 2.
(f) Data collection frame differences and nonsampling error.
(g) Electricity retail sales to ultimate customers by electric
utilities and, beginning in 1996, other energy service providers.
(h) Use of electricity that is 1) self-generated, 2) produced by
either the same entity that consumes the power or an affiliate, and
3) used in direct support of a service or industrial process
located within the same facility or group of facilities that house
the generating equipment. Direct use is exclusive of station use.

producers.
NA = Not available.
Notes: * The electric power sector comprises electricity-only and
combined-heat-and-power (CHP) plants within the NAICS 22 category
whose primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and
heat, to the public. * Totals may not equal sum of components due
to independent rounding. * Geographic coverage is the 50 States and
the District of Columbia.

(a) Anthracite, bituminous coal, subbituminous coal, lignite, waste
coal, and coal synfuel.
(b) Fuel oil nos. 1, 2, and 4. For 1973-1979, data are for gas
turbine and internal combustion plant use of petroleum. For
1980-2000, electric utility data also include small amounts of
kerosene and jet fuel.
(c) Fuel oil nos. 5 and 6. For 1973-1979, data are for steam plant
use of petroleum. For 1980-2000, electric utility data also include
a small amount of fuel oil no. 4.
(d) Jet fuel, kerosene, other petroleum liquids, and waste oil.
(e) Petroleum coke is converted from short tons to barrels by
multiplying by 5.
(f) Natural gas, plus a small amount of supplemental gaseous fuels.
(g) Blast furnace gas, propane gas, and other manufactured and waste
gases derived from fossil fuels.
(h) Wood and wood-derived fuels.
(i) Municipal solid waste from biogenic sources, landfill gas,
sludge waste, agricultural byproducts, and other biomass. Through
2000, also includes non-renewable waste (municipal solid waste from
non-biogenic sources, and tire-derived fuels).
(j) Batteries, chemicals, hydrogen, pitch, purchased steam, sulfur,
miscellaneous technologies, and, beginning in 2001, non-renewable
waste (municipal solid waste from non-biogenic sources, and
tire-derived fuels).
(k) Through 1988, data are for electric utilities only. Beginning in
1989, data are for electric utilities, independent power producers,
commercial plants, and industrial plants.
NA = Not available. (s) = Less than 0.5 trillion Btu.
Notes: * Data are for fuels consumed to produce electricity. Data
also include fuels consumed to produce useful thermal output at a
small number of electric utility combined-heat-and-power (CHP)
plants. * The electric power sector comprises electricity-only and
combined-heat-and-power (CHP) plants within the NAICS 22 category
whose primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and
heat, to the public. * Totals may not equal sum of components due to
independent rounding. * Geographic coverage is the 50 States and the
District of Columbia.

(a) Anthracite, bituminous coal, subbituminous coal, and lignite.
(b) Fuel oil nos. 1, 2 and 4. For 1973-1979, data are for gas
turbine and internal combustion plant stocks of petroleum. For
1980-2000, electric utility data also include small amounts of
kerosene and jet fuel.
(c) Fuel oil nos. 5 and 6. For 1973-1979, data are for steam plant
stocks of petroleum. For 1980-2000, electric utility data also
include a small amount of fuel oil no. 4.
(d) Jet fuel and kerosene. Through 2003, data also include a small
amount of waste oil.
(e) Petroleum coke is converted from short tons to barrels by
multiplying by 5.
(f) Through 1998, data are for electric utilities only. Beginning in
1999, data are for electric utilities and independent power
producers.
NA = Not available.
Notes: * The electric power sector comprises electricity-only and
combined-heat-and-power (CHP) plants within the NAICS 22 category
whose primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and
heat, to the public. * Stocks are at end of period. * Totals may not
equal sum of components due to independent rounding. * Geographic
coverage is the 50 States and the District of Columbia.
