EIA Extends Voluntary Power Generator Survey Three Years

## Summary

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) is extending a voluntary survey for three more years to keep track of power generators, especially backup ones. This helps make sure energy data stays accurate and complete. If you want to share your thoughts, you’ve got until August 20, 2026, to comment—no money changes hands, just better info for everyone!

## Abstract

EIA submitted an information collection request for extension as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The information collection requests a three-year extension with changes of its EIA- 860S: State Level Generator Air Permit Inventory Report, OMB Control Number 1905-0215. The voluntary collection will ensure the EIA-860 sampling frame comprehensively covers the power generator population. This request is critically important for enhancing the completeness and accuracy of the EIA-860 sampling frame, particularly in relation to backup generators. The original collection was approved by the Office of Management and Budget on February 12, 2026, under the emergency approval provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act.
