U.S. Electric Utility Companies and Rates: Look-up by Zipcode (Feb 2011)

Publicly accessible License 

This dataset, compiled by NREL using data from [ABB, the Velocity Suite](http://energymarketintel.com/) and the [U.S. Energy Information Administration dataset 861](http://www.eia.gov/electricity/data/eia861/), provides average residential, commercial and industrial electricity rates by zip code for both investor owned utilities (IOU) and non-investor owned utilities. Note: the file includes average rates for each utility, but not the detailed rate structure data found in the [OpenEI U.S. Utility Rate Database](http://en.openei.org/wiki/Utility_Rate_Database). A more recent version of this data is also available through the [NREL Utility Rate API](http://developer.nrel.gov/docs/electricity/utility-rates-v3/) with more search options. This data was released by NREL/Ventyx in February 2011.
