Coal Transportation Rates to the Electric Power Sector
Jan 29, 2024
This recent update to the Coal Transportation Rates to the Electric Power Sector web page incorporates final Form EIA-923 data for 2022 and updates the tables with data in nominal and real 2022 dollars. In 2008, EIA began collecting the commodity cost of all coal delivered to power plants with a combined nameplate capacity of 50 megawatts or greater on Form EIA-923, Power Plant Operations Report. Because we already collect delivered cost for the same shipments, we calculate a proxy for transportation cost by subtracting the commodity cost from the delivered cost. On Form EIA-923, the owners or operators of all applicable plants must provide the quantity (in tons), commodity cost, and total delivered cost (both in cents per million British thermal units) of all coal shipments by fuel supplier and by month.
Monthly Energy Review

Short-Term Energy Outlook
Jan 9, 2024
This edition of our Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO) is the first to include forecasts for 2025.
Electricity generation. We expect solar power to be the leading source of growth in electricity generation in both 2024 and 2025 as 36 gigawatts (GW) and 43 GW of new solar capacity come on line, respectively. The new capacity will boost the solar share of total generation to 6% in 2024 and 7% in 2025, up from 4% in 2023. We forecast that overall U.S. electricity generation will grow by 3% in 2024 and be unchanged in 2025. Driven by our forecast of rising generation from solar and to a lesser extent wind, we expect that electricity generation from coal will decline by 9% in 2024 and by 10% in 2025, due to a combination of higher costs compared with renewables and another 12 GW of coal-fired capacity retiring over the next two years. We expect that electricity generation from natural gas will be unchanged in 2024 and 2025 compared with 2023.

Renewable Electricity Infrastructure and Resources Dashboard
Jan 5, 2024
We have created a new dashboard of renewable electric energy in our U.S. Energy Atlas. This dashboard will consolidate the previous Biomass, Geothermal, Hydroelectric, Wind, and Solar maps into one new product that includes a map as well as charts and tables. This new tool provides stakeholders the ability to make selections and filter by state or renewable source.

Quarterly Coal Report (QCR)—Third-Quarter 2023
Jan 2, 2024
U.S. coal production during the third quarter of 2023 totaled 145.6 million short tons (MMst), which was 2.3% higher than the previous quarter and 5.7% lower than the third quarter of 2022. Third-quarter 2023 U.S. coal exports (24.9 MMst) increased 3.2% from second-quarter 2023 and increased 17.9% from third-quarter 2022. U.S. coal imports in the third quarter of 2023 totaled 1 MMst. All data for 2022 and previous years are final. All data for 2023 are preliminary.
