Dear SSO Unregistered User:

Effective immediately, the Renewable Internet Data Collection and Processing System is available to you for your 2007 EIA-xxx data submission. As you know, your data are very important to the solar or geothermal industry.  The information filed on the EIA-xxx is used by Congress, as well as the public and private industry.

 

Our records indicate that you have not yet registered in the new internet EIA-xxx survey submission process. By registering in our Single Sign On (SSO) system, you will be able to access your survey forms, complete the data entry, and submit your completed data survey form to EIA.

You do not need the Mail ID or Code to complete SSO registration. You can complete SSO registration following the steps in the user’s guide (see last paragraph).

You have received two emails from EIA. The first email contained a Mail ID and the second email contained a Code. You need both of these pieces of information to access your EIA-xxx survey forms the first time. If you do not have this information please e-mail us your request to [email protected]. I will reply by email with your Mail ID and Code.

If you are responsible for the 2007 EIA-xxx data submission, please file your submission no later than March 01, 2008, and accept our thanks in advance.

Dear SSO New User:

In the beginning of 2006, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) launched the Renewable Internet Data Collection and Processing System. The goal of the implementation is to ‘Bring Efficiency and Quality to Energy Data Submissions.’

This is one of two e-mails you are going to receive giving you the necessary information to register for the new EIA Single SignOn (SSO), https://signon.eia.doe.gov/ssoserver/login. Once you have completed this and have received both e-mails, you will be able to access the Solar Internet Data Collection System to submit your EIA-xxx data for 2007. This e-mail contains your Mail ID which is found below. You may have received, or will receive another e-mail from EIA’s Office of Information Technology, providing you with a Code and the instructions to complete the validation process. The Mail ID and the Code will enable you to validate yourself on the EIA-xxx Internet Data Collection System.

Mail ID:

The IDC user’s guide for the EIA SSO Registration, and completing the Form EIA-xxx is at http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/solar.renewables/page/forms/eia-63amanual.pdf.

Once you have successfully completed the EIA Single Sign On process and have created your own validated password on the EIA-xxx Internet Data Collection System, you will then be able to access the EIA-xxx survey. Any questions that you have with the Internet Data Collection System should be addressed to the [email protected] or Peter Wong at (202) 586-7574, and/or [email protected].
