State Energy Data System CSV File Documentation

Prices and Expenditures

Last updated: 08/27/2009 (CMC)

The State Energy Data System (SEDS) comma-separated value (CSV) files contain the price and expenditure data shown in the tables located on the main SEDS page. The first record in each file serves as a column heading and contains information about the data in each of the following records. Each data file record that follows begins with the State code (2 characters), followed by the data identifier (5 characters), followed by the 38 values for the years 1970 through 2007, with all items separated by commas. The data are expressed with five decimal places and explicit decimal points are included in numeric fields. All items are enclosed in quotes, which means some systems will read numeric values as alphanumeric unless they are converted. Each file contains SEDS prices in nominal dollars per million British thermal units (Btu) and expenditures in million nominal dollars.

There is a CSV file for each State, named with the two-letter U.S. Postal Code listed in Appendix A, as well as a file for the United States, available on each individual State or U.S. page. In addition, there are three files that contain data for all States and years available at the main SEDS page. Prices, 1970-2007 contains the price data for all States and Expenditures, 1970-2007 contains the expenditure data for all States. The third file, Adjusted Consumption for Expenditure Calculations contains adjusted consumption data used in calculating expenditures for all States and years. Zip files are also available for the large data files.

The data contained in these CSV files are in greater precision expressed with five decimal places, while the data contained in the published tables are rounded. The decimal place precision reflected in these files is the same as that used in the SEDS and is provided so that users can completely duplicate SEDS calculations; however the precision does not necessarily reflect the statistical accuracy of the numbers. Users should see the sources cited in the SEDS Price and Expenditure Technical Notes for a discussion of statistical considerations concerning specific data series. Data are stored as positive numbers in the data files, although they may be shown as negative numbers in some of the report tables. The most notable example is electric power sector fuel expenditures.

The data files contain additional data series not shown in the report tables that have frequently been requested by customers. These additional data include the individual petroleum products in "Other Petroleum Products" used in the industrial sector.

Expenditure estimates are calculated as the product of the price and consumption estimates. The consumption estimates are also from SEDS and cover 1960 through 2007. A discussion of the consumption estimation methodologies is contained in the SEDS Consumption Technical Notes. Consumption data used in the price and expenditure tables are not always identical to those contained in the consumption data tables. Section 7: Consumption Adjustments for Calculating Expenditures in the Price and Expenditure Technical Notes explains the adjustments. The SEDS consumption tables are available on the same main SEDS page with the price and expenditure tables.

Consumption Adjustments for Calculating Expenditures

To calculate energy expenditures, SEDS consumption is adjusted to remove quantities of process fuel, intermediate products, renewable energy consumption that has no direct fuel cost, and other adjustments. All such series are included in these files are in a CSV file named Adjusted Consumption for Expenditure Calculations. Not all associated SEDS consumption variables are displayed here, but they are available on the SEDS files. The most recent year's data are shown in Table TN55, in Section 7 of the SEDS Price and Expenditure Technical Notes.
