Dataset	Description
BPA Interconnection QueueBPA · daily snapshot	BPA's public large-generator interconnection queue, with requested capacity, technology, county and state, proposed point of interconnection, BPA's status, and agreed in-service dates. Each posting is a snapshot: current totals must use one latest snapshot, and requested queue MW is not operating capacity, available transmission headroom, completed study work, or evidence that a project will be built. BPA runs line and load requests as a separate queue, held in interconnection_queue.bpat_load.
BPA Line and Load Interconnection QueueBPA · daily snapshot	BPA's public line and load interconnection queue: requests to connect new load, or a new line, to BPA's transmission system, with the requesting utility or customer, county, requested MW, BPA's status, and agreed in-service dates. Each posting is a snapshot: current totals must use one latest snapshot, and requested MW is neither approved nor connected load. Generator requests are a separate queue, held in interconnection_queue.bpat.
Advanced MetersEIA · annual (report year)	EIA-861 advanced metering: AMR, AMI and other meter counts, AMI energy served and customer access, by utility and customer class. Advanced_Meters, one row per utility, state, balancing authority and customer class. customer_class is residential, commercial, industrial, transportation (direct_connected in the distributed generation tables) or EIA's own total, so summing classes without excluding total counts everything twice. event_time is 1 January of the report year. release is final or early_release: EIA posts an early release of a year in August and replaces it with the final file in the autumn, and the mirror keeps the newest row per key. A key cell EIA leaves blank is '' or 0, and duplicate_index numbers rows that still share a key, in workbook order.
AESO Asset ListAESO · daily snapshot	AESO's registry of market assets: asset code, name, pool participant, operating status and asset type (source, sink and others), including retired assets.
