Five-year dataset depicting electric power generation and CO2 emissions within the U.S. electricity sector, spanning from July 2018 to June 2023

These datasets, namely .csv, are snapshots of the regional datasets published by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) between July 1, 2018 and June 30, 2023. EIA publishes hourly operational data across the United States electricity grid, including demand, net generation of electricity from various sources (such as coal, natural gas, solar), CO2 emissions, import/export to other regions, and many more. The complete details of the EIA-930 data is available here: https://www.eia.gov/electricity/gridmonitor/about. Furthermore, we obtained the solar capacities of each year and each region from EIA (https://www.eia.gov/electricity/data/state/) and had stored the information in the file solar_capacity_factor.csv.
