Summary
Description
The Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID) is a comprehensive source of data on the environmental characteristics of almost all electric power generated in the United States. These environmental characteristics include air emissions for nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide; emissions rates; net generation; resource mix; and many other attributes for the years 1996 - 2000, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2009, and 2010. Excel spreadsheets, full documentation, summary data, eGRID subregion and NERC region representational maps, and GHG emission factors are included in this data set. The plant level data is also aggregated to the State, power control agrea, eGRID subregion, NERC region, and U.S. total levels.
