Electricity Sales tables present estimated sales of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial customers. Data for the United States, New England, and the six New England states are derived from the Energy Information Administration’s Form EIA-826, “Monthly Electric Utility Sales and Revenue Report with State Distributions.”The data are published in Electric Power Monthly, Table 5.4A, “Retail Sales of Electricity to Ultimate Consumers - Estimated by Sector, by State.” Electricity sales data beginning in January 1986 are not strictly comparable with earlier data.Year-to-year changes in commercial and industrial electricity sales should be viewed with caution, as utilities may reclassify consumers, moving them from the commercial to the industrial sector or the reverse.
