OPEN DATA

Committed to making energy data more accessible, understandable, relevant, and responsive to your needs.

Notice: EIA retired its legacy API (APIv1) on March 13th, 2023. Excel add-in v1 sheets will continue to function as they are. Please refer to our documentation for the APIv2 interaction methods.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration is committed to its free and open data by making it available through an Application Programming Interface (API) and its open data tools. EIA's API is multi-facetted and contains the following time-series data sets organized by the main energy categories.
