Abstract:
The Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID) is a comprehensive inventory of environmental attributes of electric power systems. The preeminent source of air emissions data for the electric power sector, eGRID is based on available plant-specific data for all State of Florida electricity generating plants that provide power to the electric grid and report data to the U.S. government. eGRID contains air emissions data for nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, and mercury. The information includes fuel consumption, generation, and emissions data, along with plant identification, location, and structural information for nearly all electric generators in the State of Florida. Please note: The EPA has changed the naming convention of eGRID. The current edition is named with a year corresponding to the time period of content of the data (eGRID2012), while the publication year of the data is 2015. Those changes are reflected in the Title above. For more information on eGRID please see the following EPA documentation: https://www.epa.gov/energy/egrid2012-technical-support-document. This is an update to the FGDL layer EPAEGRID_FEB14.shp.
Purpose:
The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is eGRID? The Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID) is a comprehensive inventory of environmental attributes of electric power systems. The preeminent source of air emissions data for the electric power sector, eGRID is based on available plant-specific data for all U.S. electricity generating plants that provide power to the electric grid and report data to the U.S. government. eGRID integrates many different federal data sources on power plants and power companies, including, but not limited to: EPA, the Energy Information Administration (EIA), the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Emissions data from EPA are carefully integrated with generation data from EIA to produce useful values like pounds of emissions per megawatt-hour of electricity generation (lb/MWh), which allows direct comparison of the environmental attributes of electricity generation. eGRID also provides aggregated data by state, U.S. total, and by three different sets of electric grid boundaries.
Why eGRID? Many consumers now have a choice regarding the source of their electricity, and some seek cleaner sources, such as wind and solar power. EPA’s Power Profiler application, which uses eGRID data, helps individual consumers to understand the environmental impacts of their own electricity usage. Electricity generation is the dominant industrial source of air emissions in the United States today. Whenever you switch on an electrical appliance, chances are you are contributing to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. By documenting the environmental attributes of electric power generation, eGRID can help consumers and researchers to better understand the relationship between electricity and the environment.
In the United States, electricity is generated in many different ways, with a wide variation in environmental impacts. In many states, power companies are required to disclose the environmental attributes of their retail electricity products. eGRID data can be used to support the following activities: * Greenhouse gas registries and inventories; * Carbon footprinting; * Consumer information disclosure; * Renewable portfolio standards; * Development of emissions inventories and emission standards; * Analysis of changing power markets; and * Estimation of avoided emissions.

Summary of eGRID2012 Data
2.1 eGRID Files
eGRID2012 contains electric power data at different levels of aggregation. As the database name implies, the focus of the data files is on two areas: generation and emissions. Generation is expressed in both MWh and as a percentage (called "resource mix" - generation of a certain fuel or resource type divided by total generation). CO2, NOx, and SO2 emissions are expressed in tons (short tons, not metric tons) and CH4, and N2O emissions are expressed in pounds. Emission rates are expressed in lb/MWh, lb/MMBtu for CO2, NOx, and SO2; in lb/GWh for CH4, and N2O.
Users should take note that eGRID’s emissions and emission rates are calculated at the sources of generation and do not account for losses from transmission and distribution infrastructures. Please refer to Section 3.1.9.3 on p. 16 for how to account for line losses when assigning emission rates to estimate indirect emissions associated with electricity purchases. Aggregated eGRID data only account for U.S. generation that takes place within the aggregated area and do not account for any electricity that is imported from or exported to other areas. The grid gross loss calculation, however, does account for U.S. regional interchanges with other U.S. regions as well as Canada and Mexico. The naming convention of previous editions of eGRID caused some confusion, which is why the current edition is named with a year corresponding to the year of the data. Previous editions have also been renamed to standardize the naming convention. Please note that only certain eGRID files can be linked from year 2012to years 2010, 2009, 2007, 2005, or 2004. The files that can be linked include the NERC region (by NERC acronym), eGRID subregion (by eGRID subregion acronym), state (by postal state abbreviation), plant (by eGRID plant sequence number), and U.S.
The eGRID2012 plant data are linked to the year 2010 plant data by the inclusion of the plant file’s year 2010 plant sequence number (SEQPLT10). The eGRID2012 plant file also includes the plant sequence number from years 2009, 2007, 2005, and 2004. Although most plants will match on Office of Regulatory Information Systems PLant (ORISPL) code, there are some exceptions, so it is more accurate to match plants in eGRID from year to year using the plant sequence numbers provided. The eGRID2012 data are displayed in one workbook. This workbook includes a Table of Contents; the boiler, generator, plant, state, power control area, eGRID subregion, NERC region, and U.S. files; and the 2012 grid gross loss file. The workbook can be downloaded from the EPA eGRID web site, <http://www2.epa.gov/energy/egrid>, along with Summary Tables and this document.
The data were originally processed using the Statistical Analysis System (SAS) software.
The eight data aggregation files for eGRID2012 data are: *BLR (boiler), with 5,544 year 2012 records; *GEN (generator), with 22,654 year 2012 records; *PLNT (plant), with 7,286 year 2012 records with unadjusted heat input; *ST (state), with 51 year 2012 records; *PCAL (power control area), with 120 year 2012 records in the file;
*SRL (eGRID subregion), with 26 eGRID subregion year 2012 records in the file; *NRL (NERC region), with 10 NERC region year 2012 records in the file; and *US, with 1 year 2012 U.S. totals record.
The number of variables in each of the eight aggregation files varies, with 35 in BLR, 16 in GEN, 167 in PLNT, 111 in ST, 111 in PCAL, 113 in SRL, 111 in NRL, and 109 in US. The first variable in each file is a unique sequence number for that file. The boiler file is sorted by state postal code abbreviation, plant name, plant code, and boiler ID. The generator file is sorted by state postal code abbreviation, plant name, plant code, and generator ID. The plant file is sorted by state postal code abbreviation, plant name, and plant code. The state file is sorted by state postal code abbreviation, the power control area file is sorted by power control area name, the eGRID subregion file is sorted by eGRID subregion name, and the NERC region file is sorted by NERC region acronym. The year 2012 grid gross loss file is also included as the last tab in the workbook. The file structure for each of the files is included in Appendix A. The file structure also includes a description of the variables and the original data sources.
2.2 What’s New in eGRID There are no data file changes in this edition of eGRID. Methodological changes in eGRID2012 include the following:
*All plants and associated generators are included in eGRID2012. In previous editions of eGRID, units with zero generation were not included in the final data file. This change was made so that the universe of generators in eGRID would match the universe of generators used in estimating the state-level CO2 emission rate baselines for the Clean Power Plan Final Rule.
*The methodology used to derive the national-fuel and state-fuel content average has changed, and is now calculated from EIA-923 Schedule 3A, rather than Schedule 2 due to modifications on reporting requirements to EIA-923 survey starting in year 2012.
*Some latitude-longitude coordinates have been updated based on independent research. Methodological changes are detailed in Section 3, the Methodology Section. Previous years of eGRID data (2010, 2009, 2007, 2005, 2004, and 2000-1996) are unchanged with the release of this edition. Please refer to the corresponding Technical Support Documents issued with previous editions for methodologies specific to those years of data.

GeoPlan Center downloaded the EPA eGRID2012 year 2012 data in excel format from the following EPA website on April 18, 2016. https://www.epa.gov/energy/egrid
eGRID2012 Released: 10/08/2015 Download all eGRID2012 files (ZIP)
Next GeoPlan imported the eGRID2012 - PLNT12 excel workbook sheet into ArcMap.
The PLNT12 excel workbook sheet contains 7,286 year 2012 records representing electricity generation plants. The PLNT12 excel workbook sheet was then exported from ArcMap as a Database table.
Next the newly created PLNT12.DBF was spatially mapped using the LAT and LONG fields containing decimal degrees to 4 decimal places spatial information. Records with no latitude/longitude information were removed from the data set.
Next the newly created PLNT12.SHP's projection was defined as GCS_WGS_1984, and then it was reprojected to the FGDL Albers NAD 83 HARN projection.
Next a selection was performed on the State FIPS ID field whereas it was equal to 12 (i.e. the State of Florida). Several other power plants that skirted the Florida border were also included.
Next the selection was exported to a new shapefile called EPAEGRID_2012.SHP
Next all of the field information was Upper Cased, fields containing no information were deleted, and five fields were added; - NOTES - NUCLEAR - MGRS - DESCRIPT based on PNAME. - FGDLAQDATE based on the date the data was downloaded from the Source.
Facilities no longer in operation were designated as (CLOSED) in the DESCRIPT field.
Certain points were moved, see NOTES field for features altered. Facility address information from the following website was used to help better locate these facilities physical locations: <http://www.energyjustice.net/map/searchfacility-basic.php>

Distribution_Liability:
The Florida Geographic Data Library is a collection of Geospatial Data compiled by the University of Florida GeoPlan Center with support from the Florida Department of Transportation. GIS data available in FGDL is collected from various state, federal, and other agencies (data sources) who are data stewards, producers, or publishers. The data available in FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist.
Furthermore, the GIS data available in the FGDL are provided 'as is'. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no warranties, guaranties or representations as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the data provided by the data sources. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

A note about data scale:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data.
1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger.
Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our webpage at: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>
