1 On the Form EIA-923, commodity fuel costs are confidential for all plants. The total delivered cost of fuel collected on the EIA-923 is publicly available for utility (regulated) power plants, but is confidential for non-regulated power plants 2 On the Form EIA-826, monthly electric sales, revenue and the number of customers reported is initially confidential for energy-only service until nine months following the end of the reporting year. |
