| 1/ Includes
electricity-only and combined heat and power (CHP) plants whose primary
business is to sell electricity, or electricity and heat, to the public.
Includes small power producers and exempt wholesale generators. 2/ Includes hydrothermal resources only (hot water and steam). 3/ Includes landfill gas. 4/ Includes projections for energy crops after 2010. 5/ Does not include off-grid photovoltaics (PV). EIA estimates that another 76 megawatts of remote electricity generation PV applications were in service in 1999, plus an additional 205 megawatts in communications, transportation, and assorted other non-grid-connected applications. 6/ Combined heat and power produces electricity and other useful thermal energy. 7/ Includes small on-site generating systems in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors used primarily for own-use generation, but which may also sell some power to the grid. 8/ Represents own-use industrial hydroelectric power. Note: Totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding. Net summer capacity has been estimated for nonutility generators for AEO99. Net summer capacity is used to be consistent with electric utility capacity estimates. Data for electric utility capacity data are the most recently available data as of August 31, 1997. Additional retirements is used to be consistent with electric utility capacity estimates. Data for electric utility capacity data are the most recently available data as of August 31, 1997. Additional retirements are also determined on the basis of the size and age of the units. Therefore, capacity estimates may differ from other Energy Information Administration sources.
