This dataset, compiled by NREL using data from [ABB, the Velocity Suite](http://energymarketintel.com/) and the [U.S. Energy Information Administration dataset 861](http://www.eia.gov/electricity/data/eia861/), provides average residential, commercial and industrial electricity rates by zip code for both investor owned utilities (IOU) and non-investor owned utilities. Note: the file includes average rates for each utility, but not the detailed rate structure data found in the [OpenEI U.S. Utility Rate Database](https://openei.org/apps/USURDB/).
