HIFLD Power Plants

A plant-level inventory of US electric generating facilities, with one record per plant carrying its operator, location (latitude and longitude), primary fuel, and installed capacity broken out by fuel type.

One row per: event_time x plant_code; Snapshot cadence
Evidence: Observed market data; Published observations from the named source
Time basis: Point-in-time records; UTC · event_time

Overview

The underlying data is authored by the Energy Information Administration and distributed through the Homeland Infrastructure Foundation-Level Data (HIFLD) catalog, serving as the geographic companion to the EIA-860 generator inventory. It lets anyone place the generating fleet on a map and ask where capacity sits, what fuels it runs on, and who operates it, which is the starting point for siting studies, fuel-mix analysis, interconnection context, and resource-adequacy work.

Query contract: Preserve one canonical row per (event_time, plant_code) before aggregating.
Analysis rules: Group only after preserving the declared grain: event_time, plant_code.

Dataset	Description
HIFLD SubstationsHIFLD · snapshot	A point-level inventory of electric substations across the United States, drawn from the Homeland Infrastructure Foundation-Level Data (HIFLD) program. Each record locates a substation and describes its name, city and county, voltage class (minimum and maximum kV), the number of transmission lines connecting to it, its type, and its operating status. Substations are the nodes where voltage is stepped up or down and where transmission and distribution meet, so this dataset lets operators, planners, traders, and researchers see where the grid's switching and transformation points sit, gauge the relative importance of a node by its voltage and line count, and tie generation and load to the network that connects them.
HIFLD Transmission LinesHIFLD · snapshot	This dataset maps the physical transmission backbone of the US power grid as polyline geometry, tracing each line from one substation endpoint to the other. Each segment carries attributes including the owning utility and a voltage class, distinguishing the high-voltage bulk transmission corridors from lower-voltage feeders. With it you can see how regions interconnect, identify the major paths that move power across long distances, and reason about constraints, interties, and where new generation or load would need to tie in. The source is the Homeland Infrastructure Foundation-Level Data (HIFLD) electric power transmission lines layer.
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.
Alberta (AESO) Price LocationsAESO · slow-moving dimension, refreshed every 6 hours	Every Alberta (AESO) location that carries a price, as three columns: location_id, name, and kind. 1 rows — system (1). This is the dimension the Alberta (AESO) price, and where applicable constraint, tables join to, and it is the one place a location's type is decided: resolve "which hubs exist", "is this a zone or a node", or "give me the readable name for this id" here rather than inferring a type from a name prefix. For Alberta, the one location_id is SYSTEM: the pool price (aeso.pool_price) and system marginal price (aeso.system_marginal_price) are system-wide and carry no location column. Alberta has no nodal, zonal or hub prices; do not look for one. Generating assets are identified by AESO asset code in aeso.unit_status and aeso.asset_list, not here. The same three columns exist for every market, so the equivalent question in another ISO is the same query against that ISO's table.
