(in megawatts)
According to the source, capacity resources are utility- or IPP-owned generating capacity that is existing or in various stages of planning or construction, less inoperable capacity, plus planned capacity purchases from other resources, less planned capacity sales. ** 2010 data are final, all other data are projections. The abbreviation EIA stands for U.S. Energy Information Administration.
