Energy Profile

About EnergyProfile

Know your state’s energy mix.

What we do

EnergyProfile compares what each state pays for electricity and where that electricity comes from — coal, gas, nuclear, wind, solar, or hydro.

We focus on U.S. state-level electricity rates and generation mix. Every page on energyprofile.org is built from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) API, cited and linkable so readers can trace any number back to its source.

Who this is for

EnergyProfile is built for ratepayers, homeowners considering solar, policy researchers, and energy reporters.

Why this exists

Public data on U.S. state-level electricity rates and generation mix is technically free, but practically locked behind file formats, acronyms, and paywalled dashboards. EnergyProfileexists to close that gap: take the raw federal and public-sector data, and turn it into pages a normal person can read in thirty seconds.

How we work

  • Primary source only. We pull from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) API and cite the exact dataset and version on every page.
  • No invented numbers. If a figure is not in the underlying public data, it does not appear on energyprofile.org. We never generate synthetic statistics to fill gaps.
  • Refreshed on a schedule. Data is refetched on a published cadence — you can see the "Last updated" date on every dataset page.
  • Corrections welcome. Readers flag issues all the time. When the source fixes a record, EnergyProfile follows.

Independence

EnergyProfile is an independent publication. We are not funded, owned, or directed by any of the agencies, companies, or organizations that appear in our data. Hosting is paid for by advertising — see our Privacy Policy for details — and we do not take paid placements, sponsored rankings, or "remove-my-entry" fees.

History

EnergyProfile launched in 2026 as part of a small portfolio of independent public-data sites. It has been maintained and updated continuously since.
