aNameplate capacity is used instead of the more commonly used net summer capability because net summer capability is not collected for nonutilities.

bGeneration for utilities is net of plant use and for nonutilities is gross generation.

cNuclear generation for nonutilities is included in the Other category.

dIncludes wood, wood waste, peat, wood liquors, railroad ties, pitch, wood sludge, municipal solid waste, agricultural waste, straw, tires, landfill gases, tall oil, digester gas, other waste, hydrogen, sulfur, batteries, chemicals, fish oil and spent sulfite liquor. Also includes nuclear for nonutilities.

eFor nonutilities, a planned unit must have obtained (1) all environmental and regulatory approvals, (2) a signed contract for the electric energy, or (3) financial closure on the facility. Because nonutility facilities generally have needed shorter leadtimes to finance and build than utility facilities, and because utilities are required to plan for future load, nonutility plans for facilities are likely to be less comprehensive than those for utilities, especially for later years. For utilities, a planned unit must only be “utility authorized.”

Note: •Sum of components may not equal total due to independent rounding. •Nonutility data are for facilities of 1 or more megawatts. •Indefinitely postponed and cancelled units are not included in planned capacity additions. •Nonutility combined cycle units are included with their constituent prime movers.

aNameplate capacity is used for comparison to nonutilities, instead of the more commonly used net summer capability, because net summer capability is not collected for nonutilities.

bThe coal price is the average price of all coal types, and the petroleum price is the average price of heavy oil. (Heavy oil includes Fuel Oil Nos. 4, 5, and 6, and topped crude fuel oil.)

cRetail price of electricity sold by electric utilities. Data for 1979 and earlier are for Classes A and B privately owned electric utilities only; data for 1980 and forward are for selected Class A utilities whose electric operating revenues were $100 million or more during the previous year.

dOther includes geothermal, solar, wind, waste, and wood.

Note: •Sum of components may not equal total due to independent rounding. •Retail price for 1995 is preliminary.

cRenewable energy sources include hydroelectric, wind, solar, geothermal, and wood resources.

dOther includes all other fuels, including petroleum, multiple unit projects for which the primary energy source varied among the units, and projects which did not identify their primary energy source.

eThe coal price is the price of steam coal to the industrial sector.

fThe petroleum price is the price of residual fuel oil to the industrial sector.

gThe natural gas price is its price to the industrial sector.

h These data series were compiled from several sources resulting in some inconsistancies in category definitions over time. 1980-1984 are not included because nonutility data were not collected for those years. Nonutility data for 1970 through 1979 represent capacity and generation in the industrial sector for plants of 10 megawatts or more only. Nonutility data for 1985 through 1988 include all nonutilities. Nonutility data for 1989 through 1991 include nonutility facilities of 5 or more megawatts. Nonutility data for 1992 through 1995 include nonutility facilities of 1 or more megawatts. Sum of components may not equal total due to independent rounding. Breakdown of generation assumes no nonutility receipts from utilities are resold to utilities.

i1970 nonutility capacity and generation data are available to whole numbers only.

NA = Not available.

Notes: •Sum of components may not equal total due to independent rounding. •Breakdown of generation assumes no nonutility receipts are resold.

aOther steam turbine units include steam portion of combined cycle, nuclear steam, geothermal steam, and solar steam.

W = Withheld to avoid disclosure of individual company data.

-- = No new units started, or in the case of 1996 and beyond, planned to start operation.

Notes: •Combined cycle units are included with their constituent prime movers. •Data include only units operating or planned on December 31, 1995. •Indefinitely postponed and canceled units are not included in planned capacity additions.
