Form EIA-423 Database
Monthly Nonutility Fuel Receipts and Fuel Quality Data

The following is a preliminary datafile on monthly deliveries of fossil fuels to nonutility generating facilities. Included are the specific energy source, quantity of fuel delivered, the Btu content, sulfur content, ash content, coal state and county of origin, coal mine type (surface/underground), as well as the supplier of fuel. Fuel cost data collected on this survey will not be made available to the public due to it being classified as confidential. The datafile includes facilities with a fossil-fueled nameplate generating capacity of 50 or more megawatts. Records containing all zeros or blanks in the quantity field indicate a non-respondent to the survey. We are currently in the process of obtaining data from these facilities. Therefore, the file is subject to change in the coming months and will not necessarily agree with cost and quality data published by EIA. Please contact the survey manager if you believe a facility has been omitted from the database.

The data are compressed into a self-extracting (e423yyyy.exe)* zip file. This self-extracting zip file expands into one DBF file (e423yyyy.dbf)* that contains the monthly data and an ASCII text file (e423lay.txt) that contains the file description and record layout for the data base structure. The data are also available in Excel. The current year's file will be a year-to-date file and is maintained in this monthly format until the data for the final month are finalized.


*Note: Substitute the applicable year for "yyyy" in the file name.
