DEQ's basis (OAR 340-215-0120): electricity the supplier delivered to Oregon end users in the year, from specified sources (at the busbar, or with DEQ's 2% transmission-loss factor) and unspecified purchases, and the anthropogenic emissions DEQ's reporting system computes for it from DEQ's emission factors (unspecified power 0.428 t CO2e/MWh). A multi-jurisdictional utility reports its whole system and its Oregon retail sales including losses, and DEQ applies the system's factor to the Oregon figure. Not generation, not Washington's disclosure (a different basis, never added to it), and not a compliance determination.

Fuel types as DEQ names them: Bonneville Power Administration, Powerex and Tacoma are purchases from those systems, kept as their own categories and never resolved to plants; shares are of the MWh DEQ lists for the supplier, computed here from DEQ's rows.

Customer programmes

EIA-861 Schedule 6, as filed

Programme results as each utility filed them, by customer class and report year, each in its own unit. Classes are never added into a total, years are never added into a period, and savings are never divided by sales. The one ratio shown, enrolled demand-response customers against the utility's own EIA-861 customer count for the same state, class and year, carries both counts.

Energy efficiency EIA-861 Schedule 6 Part A

Reported by the utility on EIA-861 Schedule 6 Part A as adjusted gross savings at the customer meter under its own evaluation; figures are not comparable across utilities. Reporting-year incremental savings are annualized for participants new that year; life-cycle savings run over the programmes' planned life (energy as a lump sum, peak as the average annual reduction). Each class is shown as filed and the total row is the filer's own; nothing is summed here. Costs are nominal dollars of the report year (the form collects thousands; PUDL publishes dollars). A blank stays blank.

Report year 2024, OR. Each row is one customer class as filed; the filer's total is its own line and is not the sum of the rows above. Costs are nominal dollars.

2010-2024 Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Electricity Use (ghgElectricityEms.xlsx; sheets Emissions and Power by Year and Raw Data 2019-2024), last modified 2026-06-15

Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, 2010-2024 Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Electricity Use

Each electricity supplier's electricity delivered to Oregon end users in MWh, and the anthropogenic emissions DEQ computes for it in metric tons CO2e from its own emission factors, by year, and by fuel type from 2019 (OAR 340-215-0120). Specified sources are reported at the busbar or with DEQ's 2% transmission-loss factor; unspecified purchases carry 0.428 t CO2e/MWh; a multi-jurisdictional utility reports its whole system and its Oregon retail sales including losses, and DEQ applies the system's factor to the Oregon figure. Bonneville Power Administration, Powerex and Tacoma are fuel types in DEQ's workbook and stay their own categories, never resolved to plants. Not generation, not Washington's Fuel Mix Disclosure (a different basis), and not a compliance determination.
