This comprehensive dataset offers a detailed look at the United States electricity market, providing valuable insights into prices, sales, and revenue across various states, sectors, and years. With data spanning from 2001 onwards to 2024, this dataset is a powerful tool for analyzing the complex dynamics of the US electricity market and understanding how it has evolved over time.
The dataset includes eight key variables:
| Column Name | Description |
|-------|-------|
| year | The year of the observation |
| month | The month of the observation |
| stateDescription | The name of the state |
| sectorName | The sector of the electricity market (residential, commercial, industrial, other, or all sectors) |
| customers | The number of customers (missing for some observations) |
| price | The average price of electricity per kilowatt-hour (kWh) in cents |
| revenue | The total revenue generated from electricity sales in millions of dollars |
| sales | The total electricity sales in millions of kilowatt-hours (kWh) |
By providing such granular data, this dataset enables users to conduct in-depth analyses of electricity market trends, comparing prices and consumption patterns across different states and sectors, and examining the impact of seasonality on demand and prices.
One of the primary applications of this dataset is in forecasting future electricity prices and sales based on historical trends. By leveraging the extensive time series data available, researchers and analysts can develop sophisticated models to predict how prices and demand may change in the coming years, taking into account factors such as economic growth, population shifts, and policy changes. This predictive power is invaluable for policymakers, energy companies, and investors looking to make informed decisions in the rapidly evolving electricity market.
Another key use case for this dataset is in investigating the complex relationships between electricity prices, sales volumes, and revenue. By combining the price, sales, and revenue data, users can explore how changes in prices impact consumer behavior and utility company bottom lines. This analysis can shed light on important questions such as the price elasticity of electricity demand, the effectiveness of energy efficiency programs, and the potential impact of new technologies like renewable energy and energy storage on the market.
Beyond its immediate applications in the energy sector, this dataset also has broader implications for understanding the US economy and society as a whole. Electricity is a critical input for businesses and households across the country, and changes in electricity prices and consumption can have far-reaching effects on economic growth, competitiveness, and quality of life. By providing such a rich and detailed portrait of the US electricity market, this dataset opens up new avenues for research and insights that can inform public policy, business strategy, and academic inquiry.
I hope you all enjoy using this dataset and find it useful! 🤗

TwitterElectricity prices in Europe are expected to remain volatile through 2025, with Italy projected to have some of the highest rates among major European economies. This trend reflects the ongoing challenges in the energy sector, including the transition to renewable sources and the impact of geopolitical events on supply chains. Despite efforts to stabilize the market, prices still have not returned to pre-pandemic levels, such as in countries like Italy, where prices are forecast to reach ****** euros per megawatt hour in September 2025. Natural gas futures shaping electricity costs The electricity market's future trajectory is closely tied to natural gas prices, a key component in power generation. Dutch TTF gas futures, a benchmark for European natural gas prices, are projected to be ***** euros per megawatt hour in July 2025. The reduced output from the Groningen gas field and increased reliance on imports further complicate the pricing landscape, potentially contributing to higher electricity costs in countries like Italy. Regional disparities and global market influences While European electricity prices remain high, significant regional differences persist. For instance, natural gas prices in the United States are expected to be roughly one-third of those in Europe by March 2025, at **** U.S. dollars per million British thermal units. This stark contrast highlights the impact of domestic production capabilities on global natural gas prices. Europe's greater reliance on imports, particularly in the aftermath of geopolitical tensions and the shift away from Russian gas, continues to keep prices elevated compared to more self-sufficient markets. As a result, countries like Italy may face sustained pressure on electricity prices due to their position within the broader European energy market. As of August 2025, electricity prices in Italy have decreased to ****** euros per megawatt hour, reflecting ongoing volatility in the market.

TwitterThe average wholesale electricity price in September 2025 in the United Kingdom is forecast to amount to*******British pounds per megawatt-hour, a decrease from the previous month. A record high was reached in August 2022 when day-ahead baseload contracts averaged ***** British pounds per megawatt-hour. Electricity price stabilization in Europe Electricity prices increased in 2024 compared to the previous year, when prices stabilized after the energy supply shortage. Price spikes were driven by the growing wholesale prices of natural gas and coal worldwide, which are among the main sources of power in the region.
… and in the United Kingdom? The United Kingdom was one of the countries with the highest electricity prices worldwide during the energy crisis. Since then, prices have been stabilizing, almost to pre-energy crisis levels. The use of nuclear, wind, and bioenergy for electricity generation has been increasing recently. The fuel types are an alternative to fossil fuels and are part of the country's power generation plans going into the future.
