Nebraska Energy Statistics

Generating Units in Nebraska

The units generating electricity are listed in the table below, each with unit ID, capacity, prime mover, energy source, year of commercial operation, status, number of wind turbines if applicable, and the generation sector. The key to the abbreviations is below the table.

While individual installations are not reported in available net metering reports for Nebraska, the assumption was made that small–scale projects are in the net metering reports. So megawatts from the net metering reports are included in the totals below while megawatts from the known small–scale projects are not included in the totals to avoid possible double–counting.

See the Units and Capacity by Energy Source and Year of Initial Operation report and the Units and Capacity by Energy Source report for additional information.

A Note About Nameplate Capacity

Summer capacity and winter capacity is sometimes greater than nameplate capacity. The nameplate gives the capacity rating of the generator when it operates at certain temperatures, pressures, and power factors. With some modifications and with some margins that are built into generators, it is possible to exceed its nameplate. It is not uncommon for a generator to exceed its nameplate. The nameplate is usually not replaced and, in this case, the summer and winter capacity is often much higher than the nameplate value. Normally, summer and winter capacity is expected to be below nameplate capacity and in most cases they are.

Notes–

Prime Mover:

BA = Energy Storage, Battery

BT = Turbines used in a binary cycle (such as used for geothermal applications)

CA = Combined cycle steam part

CC = Combined cycle total unit (used only for plants/generators that are in planning stage, for which specific generator details cannot be provided)

CE = Compressed air energy storage

CS = Combined cycle single shaft (combustion turbine and steam turbine share a single generator)

CT = Combined cycle combustion turbine part (type of coal or solid must be reported as energy source for integrated coal gasification)

FC = Fuel cell

GT = Combustion (gas) turbine – simple cycle (includes jet engine design)

HY = Hydraulic turbine (includes turbines associated with delivery of water by pipeline)

IC = Internal combustion engine (diesel, piston, reciprocating)

OT = Other

PS = Hydraulic turbine – reversible (pumped storage)

PV = Photovoltaic

ST = Steam turbine, including nuclear, geothermal, and solar steam (does not include combined cycle)

WT = Wind turbine

Energy Source: The first word or abbreviation is the primary energy source. The second word or abbreviation is the alternate energy source.

AB = Agricultural crop byproducts/straw/energy crops

BFG = Blast furnace gas

Bit = Anthracite coal and bituminous coal

BLQ = Black liquor

DFO = Distillate fuel oil including diesel, No. 1, No. 2, and No. 4 fuel oils

GEO = Geothermal

JF = Jet fuel

KER = Kerosene

LFG = Landfill gas

Lig = Lignite coal

MSW = Municipal solid waste

MWH = Energy storage technologies, such as compressed air, batteries, and fly wheels

N = Natural Gas

Nuc = Nuclear including Uranium, Plutonium, Thorium

OBG = Other biomass gas including digestor gas, methane, other biomass gases

OBL = Other biomass liquids (ethanol, fish oil, liquid acetonitrile waste, medical waste, tall oil, waste alcohol, and other biomass not specified)

OBS = Other biomass solids (animal manure and waste, solid byproducts, and other solid biomass not specified)

OG = Other gas (butane, coal processes, coke–oven, refinery, and other processes)

OTH = Other (batteries, chemicals, coke breeze, hydrogen, pitch, sulfur, tar coal, and miscellaneous technologies)

PC = Petroleum coke

PG = Gaseous propane

PUR = Purchased steam

RFO = Residual fuel oil (including No. 5 and No. 6 fuel oils and Bunker C fuel oil)

S = Subbituminous coal

SC = Coal synfuel. Coal–based solid fuel that has been processed by a coal synfuel plant; and coal–based fuels such as briquettes, pellets, or extrusions, which are formed from fresh or recycled coal and binding materials.

SG = Synthetic gas, other than coal–derived.

SGC = Synthetic gas derived from coal.

SLW = Sludge waste

SUN = Solar (photovoltaic, thermal)

TDF = Tire–derived fuels

Water = Water at a conventional hydroelectric turbine.

WC = Waste/other coal including anthracite culm, bituminous gob, fine coal, lignite waste, and waste coal.

WDL = Wood waste liquids excluding black liquor, including red liquor, sludge wood, spent sulfite liquor, and other wood–based liquids)

WDS = Wood/wood waste solids including paper pellets, railroad ties, utility poles, wood chips, bark, and wood waste solids.

WH = Waste heat not directly attributed to an energy source. WH should only be reported where the energy source for the waste heat is undetermined.

Wind = Wind

WO = Waste/other oil including crude oil, liquid butane, liquid propane, oil waste, re–refined motor oil, sludge oil, tar oil, or other petroleum–based liquid wastes.

Unit Status:

OA = Out of service – was not used for some or all of the reporting period but was either returned to service on December 31 or will be returned to service in the next calendar year.

OP = Operating – in service (commercial operation) and producing some electricity. Includes peaking units that are run on an as–needed intermittent or seasonal) basis.

OS = Out of service – was not used for some or all of the reporting period and is NOT expected to be returned to service in the next calendar year.

SB = Standby/Backup – available for service but not normally used (has little or no generation during the year) for this reporting period.

Number of Wind Turbines:

A dash (—) indicates not applicable.

Sector (Primary purpose, regulatory status, and plant–level combined heat and power status):

Commercial CHP = Commercial, Combined Heat and Power.

Industrial CHP = Industrial, Combined Heat and Power.

Industrial Non–CHP = Industrial, Non–Combined Heat and Power.

IPP = Independent Power Producer.

IPP CHP = Independent Power Producer, Combined Heat and Power.

IPP Non–CHP = Independent Power Producer, Non–Combined Heat and Power.
