FERC Form 1 annual financial reports of major US investor-owned electric, gas and combination utilities: income statement, comparative balance sheet and summary of utility plant, by respondent (utility) and report year, 1994 to date.

Tools

• ferc1_find_utility(query, limit?) — find a Form 1 respondent by name and get its FERC respondent id. found:false when nothing matches.
• ferc1_income_statement(utility, year?, utility_type?) — Schedule 114 line items for one utility-year, plus a headline block (total operating revenues, operating expenses, net utility operating income, net income). Answers “PacifiCorp total operating revenues 2023”.
• ferc1_income_history(utility, income_type?, utility_type?) — one income-statement line across every year on file, for trends.
• ferc1_balance_sheet(utility, year?) — Schedule 110 assets and liabilities/equity with starting and ending balances.
• ferc1_utility_plant(utility, year?, utility_type?) — Schedule 200 plant in service, construction work in progress and accumulated depreciation by segment.

utility takes a name or the numeric FERC respondent id. An unknown respondent returns found:false; an ambiguous name returns ambiguous:true with candidates. Amounts are US dollars as filed. Rows marked is_correction are reconciliation adjustments added by the data processor so the columns sum.

This is not ferc-elibrary (FERC’s filing and docket search) or ferc-eqr (wholesale power transactions), and it is not sec-xbrl: Form 1 includes non-listed and subsidiary respondents that SEC company facts do not break out. Form 1 figures follow FERC’s Uniform System of Accounts, so a utility’s total can differ slightly from its GAAP figure in an SEC filing.

Data sources

• Catalyst Cooperative, Public Utility Data Liberation (PUDL) project, processed FERC Form 1 tables — derived from the filings utilities submit to the US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Published under CC-BY-4.0 (PUDL README: “The PUDL data and documentation are published under the Creative Commons Attribution License v4.0”); the underlying FERC filings are US federal public data. Every response carries the attribution.

The PUDL tables are large bulk files (hundreds of thousands of rows) with no query API, so a refresh script (scripts/refresh-form1.mjs, run weekly by a scheduled job) groups them by respondent and writes one small object per respondent plus a respondent index to the shared R2 store (ferc-form1/). A call reads the index and one respondent’s object. data_as_of is the publication date of the PUDL release the data comes from; copy_refreshed_at is when the copy was last rebuilt. A missing index or respondent object is an error, never found:false: only the index decides that a respondent does not exist.

Notes

• Respondent ids are FERC’s respondent_id; PUDL’s own utility_id_pudl is returned alongside for joining to other PUDL data. FERC’s test respondents are excluded.
• Several respondents share a trade name (for example “Duke Energy”); use ferc1_find_utility and pass the numeric id.
• Refresh: node mcps/ferc-form1/scripts/refresh-form1.mjs (R2 write needs CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN + CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID or an operator wrangler login); --out <dir> writes the objects to a directory instead, --dry-run writes nothing.
