W = Withheld to avoid disclosure of individual company data.

Notes: Rates are based on a weighted average of the difference between the commodity cost and total delivered cost of coal shipments to plants in the electric power sector.

In addition, the rates are based on the primary transport mode selected by a plant's owner or operator so may include other secondary or tertiary modes. Values are presented

in 2022 dollars. For the composition of coal basins, refer to the definition of "coal‐producing regions" in EIA's glossary at www.eia.gov/tools/glossary.

W = Withheld to avoid disclosure of individual company data.

Notes: Rates are based on a weighted average of the difference between the commodity cost and total delivered cost of coal shipments to plants in the electric power sector.

In addition, the rates are based on the primary transport mode selected by a plant's owner or operator so may include other secondary or tertiary modes. Values are presented

in 2022 dollars. For the composition of coal basins, refer to the definition of "coal‐producing regions" in EIA's glossary at www.eia.gov/tools/glossary.
