The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) is a federal agency tasked with the collection, analysis and dissemination of energy information. EIA is a division of the U.S. Department of Energy.[1]

The agency's budget for fiscal year 2024 totaled $135 million.[2]

History

In 1974, Congress created the Federal Energy Administration (FEA), which was subsumed by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) upon its establishment in 1977. In 1976, enactment of the Energy Conservation and Production Act resulted in the creation of the Office of Energy Information and Analysis (OEIA) within the FEA. OEIA was a predecessor to today's EIA, which was formed in 1977 as a division of the newly-formed Department of Energy.[3][4]

Mission

EIA's mission statement is as follows:[5]

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) is the statistical and analytical agency within the U.S. Department of Energy. EIA collects, analyzes, and disseminates independent and impartial energy information to promote sound policymaking, efficient markets, and public understanding of energy and its interaction with the economy and the environment. EIA is the nation's premier source of energy information and, by law, its data, analyses, and forecasts are independent of approval by any other officer or employee of the U.S. government.[6]
