Monthly Energy Review - Energy Information Administration

1 DOE/EIA 0035(2018/8) August 2018 Monthly Energy Review Monthly Energy Review The Monthly Energy Review (MER) is the Energy Information Administration s (EIA) primary report of recent and historical Energy statistics. Included are statistics on total Energy production, consumption, stocks, trade, and Energy prices; overviews of petroleum, natural gas, coal, electricity, nuclear Energy , renewable Energy , and international petroleum; carbon dioxide emissions; and data unit conversions. Release of the MER is in keeping with responsibilities given to EIA in Public Law 95 91 (Department of Energy Organization Act), which states, in part, in Section 205(a)(2): The Administrator shall be responsible for carrying out a central, comprehensive, and unified Energy data and Information program which will collect, evaluate, assemble, analyze, and disseminate data and The MER is intended for use by members of Congress, federal and state agencies, Energy analysts, and the general public.

2 EIA welcomes suggestions from readers regarding the content of the MER and other EIA publications. Related Monthly publications: Other Monthly EIA reports are Petroleum Supply Monthly , Petroleum Marketing Monthly , Natural Gas Monthly , and Electric Power Monthly . For more Information , contact EIA s Office of Communications via email at Important notes about the data Data displayed: For tables beginning in 1949, annual data are usually displayed only in 5-year increments between 1950 and 2000 in the tables in Portable Document Format (PDF) files; however, all annual data are shown in the Excel files, comma-separated values (CSV) files, application programming interface (API) files, and in the data browser. Also, only two to three years of Monthly data are displayed in the PDF files; however, for many series, Monthly data beginning with January 1973 are available in the Excel files, CSV files, API files, and in the data browser. Comprehensive changes: Each month, most MER tables and figures carry a new month of data, which is usually preliminary (and sometimes estimated or forecast) and likely to be revised the succeeding month.

3 Annual data from 1949: In 2013, EIA expanded the MER to incorporate annual data as far back as 1949 in those data tables that were previously published in both the Annual Energy Review (AER) and MER. The last edition of the AER was released in September 2012 with 2011 data. Annual data beginning in 1949 for many related supplemental data series that are not found in the MER are available at Electronic access The MER is available on EIA s website in various formats at Full report and report tables: PDF files Table data (unrounded): Excel files, CSV files, API files, and data browser Graphs: PDF files and data browser Note: PDF files display selected annual and Monthly data; Excel files, CSV files, API files, and data browser display all available annual and Monthly data, often at a greater level of precision than the PDF files. Timing of release: The MER is posted on the EIA website no later than the last work day of the month at Released: August 28, 2018 DOE/EIA-0035(2018/08) Monthly Energy ReviewAugust Energy Information AdministrationOffice of Energy Department of EnergyWashington, DC 20585 This report was prepared by the Energy Information Administration (EIA), the statistical and analytical agency within Department of Energy .
