January 8, 2007—The Energy Information Administration (EIA) recently released State Energy Profiles, a new gateway to EIA’s state energy data, plus individual State Profiles that present key facts and statistics about state energy markets and industries.
EIA notes that many of the statistics in the profiles will be updated simultaneously with data updates on other parts of the EIA Web site.
Current features of the State Energy Profiles include:
- Energy maps display state energy infrastructure and renewable energy potential.
- Quick Facts provide the most important state energy information.
- Data tables provide the most current state-level statistics from EIA surveys.
- Associated links take users to specific Web pages on which EIA’s detailed data and time series can be found.
New features to come during 2007:
- Written overviews will explain how fossil fuels, renewables, and alternative energy sources affect each state’s energy markets.
- Sidebar navigation will give users easy access to EIA’s state data publications.
- Expanded energy maps will provide clearer and more detailed views.
