Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 99 / Monday, May 23, 2022 / Notices 31225 

comprehensive set of the current day’s 

system demand data on an hourly basis 

and the prior day’s basic hourly electric 

system operating data on a daily basis. 

The data provide a basic measure of the 

current status of electric systems in the 

United States and can be used to 

compare actual system demand with the 

day-ahead forecast thereby providing a 

measure of the accuracy of the 

forecasting used to commit resources. In 

addition, the data can be used to 

address smart grid related issues such as 

integrating wind and solar generation, 

improving the coordination of natural 

gas and electric short-term operations 

and expanding the use of demand 

response, storage, and electric vehicles 

in electric systems operations. 

(4a) Proposed Changes to Information 

Collection: 

Form EIA–860 Annual Electric 

Generator Report 

EIA proposes to add battery storage 

questions for proposed applications, 

including planned design attributes, 

energy storage capacity, and use case. 

For energy storage applications that are 

operationally connected to renewable 

technologies, EIA proposes to add a 

question that identifies the related 

plants and generators. 

EIA also proposes to add ‘bifacial’ as 

a solar photovoltaic technology option. 

Form EIA–861 Annual Electric Power 

Industry Report 

EIA proposes to expand questions 

about battery storage on the net 

metering and non net-metered 

distributed generators schedules. EIA is 

dropping two questions on net metering 

‘storage’ and adding six questions 

pertaining to batteries. 

For non net-metered EIA is dropping 

one ‘storage’ question and adding two 

questions about batteries. EIA is 

proposing to add one question about 

Photovoltaic generators. 

Form EIA–861M Monthly Electric 

Power Industry Report 

EIA proposes to expand questions 

about battery storage on the net 

metering and non net-metered 

distributed generators schedules. EIA is 

dropping two questions on net metering 

‘storage’ and adding six questions 

pertaining to batteries. 

For non net-metered EIA is dropping 

one ‘storage’ question and adding two 

questions about batteries. EIA is 

proposing to add one question about 

Photovoltaic generators. 

Form EIA–930 Hourly and Daily 

Balancing Authority Operations Report 

EIA proposes to improve the EIA–930 

by adding an information technology 

security requirement and limiting 

reported values to integers. EIA also 

proposes adding demand response and 

energy storage to the list of options for 

which net generation is to be reported. 

Form EIA–930A Annual Balancing 

Authority Generator Inventory Report 

EIA proposes to improve the ability to 

reconcile Form EIA–930 data with data 

reported on Form EIA–860 and Form 

EIA–923 by collecting the plants and 

generators used by each balancing 

authority. 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of 

Respondents: 21,488: 

Form EIA–63B has 57 respondents; 

Form EIA–860 has 5,716 respondents; 

Form EIA–860M has 478 respondents; 

Form EIA–861 has 1,735 respondents; 

Form EIA–861S has 1,692 

respondents; 

Form EIA–861M has 650 respondents; 

Form EIA–923 has 10,997 

respondents; 

Form EIA–930 has 63 respondents; 

Pretesting methodology consists of 

100 respondents. 

(6) Annual Estimated Number of 

Total Responses: 84,881. 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 198,781 hours. 

(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: 

$16,574,360 (198,781 burden hours 

times $83.38 per hour). EIA estimates 

that there are no additional costs to 

respondents associated with the surveys 

other than the costs associated with the 

burden hours since the information is 

maintained during normal course of 

business. 

Statutory Authority: 15 U.S.C. 772(b) 

and 42 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.
