Instructions for Completing Form EIA-846
General Instructions:
1.

Individuals most familiar with the plant energy systems and operations, such as engineers, should complete the
questionnaire especially for the end use and fuel switching sections.

Use the units specified on the questionnaire for reporting all quantities. See the Btu conversion factors PDF on the Census
Bureau’s Business Help Site for a comprehensive list of various energy conversion factors. If your establishment uses
more precise conversion values for your operations, use them, and indicate in the “Remarks” at the end of each section, the
conversion factor(s) used.

Do not consolidate establishments. The reporting boundaries for your establishment should correspond to those used in
the Economic Census – Manufacturing (EC-M).
• To resolve any consolidation problems, match the 10-digit identification number, which is located on the
Manufacturing Energy Consumption Survey (MECS) questionnaire mailing label, with the first 10-digits of the
identification number appearing on the EC-M mailing label.
• Responses to the MECS questions should be the same activities as those considered when responding to the
matching EC-M.

Report dollar amounts rounded to the nearest dollar,- (e.g., report $1,257.59 as $1,258).

If you do not maintain book records for particular items, please use carefully prepared estimates.

Enter zeros in the data columns if the value is zero or none.

Complete all applicable sections of the questionnaire.

The sections of this questionnaire are designed so all questions associated with the particular energy source should be
completed before going on to the next energy source. Therefore, within each section, the questionnaire should be
answered from the top to the bottom of the same column, before moving on to the next energy source (column).

The energy sources that are preprinted on the questionnaire are considered the most frequently consumed, but they do not
represent a complete list of applicable energy sources. If your establishment has energy sources that meet the criteria for
reporting, but are not preprinted on the questionnaire, please specify those energy sources in the “Other Energy Sources”
section and enter the data there.

Section-Specific Instructions:
Company Information
In this section, indicate any changes in the company name, address, or zip code.
Contact Information
Enter address and other contact information for the person most knowledgeable about completing this questionnaire, and the
person whom we should contact if we have any questions concerning this filing.
Establishment Information
In this section, indicate any changes in the establishment ownership during 2010 and indicate the period covered by this filing,
whether the calendar year or other period.

Establishment Size
This section asks for the number of buildings and total square footage associated with this establishment. See specific
instructions in this section for the definition of what should be counted as a building.
Fuels Used
In this section, indicate which energy sources (fuels) are used at the establishment for:
• heat, power, electricity generation, and on-site transportation;
• material inputs, feedstock, and “nonfuel” use; and
• shipments offsite from this establishment when required.
If you are using PDF’s to complete this questionnaire, this section will help you to determine which energy source PDF’s need
to be printed off from the Business Help Site and completed. However, if you are using Census Taker to complete this
questionnaire, the programming will automatically take you to the energy sources which you have checked in this section.
Energy Sources (Fuels)
Reporting Criteria
An energy source (fuel) should be reported on this questionnaire if:
• the energy source was consumed as a fuel, (that is, for heat, power, or electricity generation); or
• the energy source was consumed as a nonfuel (feedstock, raw material input); or
• for selected energy sources, the energy source was shipped offsite from this establishment. The energy sources for which
you will be asked to supply shipments data are:
o LPG
o Coal coke
o Petroleum coke
o Breeze
o Coke oven gas
o Blast furnace gas
o Acetylene
o Hydrogen
o Distillate fuel oil; and
o Residual fuel oil.
If your only means of an energy source during 2010 was a byproduct (or product) of an energy source used as a feedstock (or
raw material input) that byproduct energy source should be reported only if it was at least partially consumed onsite as a fuel or
shipped offsite. If the byproduct (or product) energy source was only itself consumed as a nonfuel (feedstock), it should be
excluded.
Estimated end-use percent consumption is also collected for selected energy sources. These questions are intended to provide
information on the purposes for which the energy are used in the manufacturing sector. More specific instructions for
completing these parts are included in the questionnaire.
Data are collected for the following energy sources (fuels):
Electricity
Natural Gas
Diesel Fuel Oil (excluding off-site highway use)
Distillate Fuel Oil (e.g., Numbers 1, 2, 4)
Residual Fuel Oil (e.g., Numbers 5, 6, Navy Special, Bunker C)
Propane and Liquefied Petroleum Gases (LPG) and Natural Gas Liquids (NGL)
• Butane

Wood Harvested directly from trees (e.g., roundwood, wood chips)
Byproduct Energy Source
• Blast Furnace Gas
• Coke Oven Gas
• Waste Oils and Tars (excluding Coal Tar)
• Waste and Byproduct Gases (e.g., flue gas, off gas, plant gas, refinery gas, still gas, vent gas)
• Agricultural Waste (e.g., bagasse, nut shells, orchard prunings, rice hulls)
• Pulping and Black Liquor
• Wood Residues and Byproducts from mill processing (e.g., sawdust, shaving, slabs, bark)
• Wood/Paper-related Refuse (e.g., scrap, wastepaper, wood pallets, packing materials)
Steam (excluding steam generated in an onsite boiler from CHP or other fossil fuel, wood, or combustible source)
Industrial Hot Water
Other Energy Source
Energy Sources Reporting Examples
Example 1 – Your establishment depended entirely on electricity for heat and power, and no combustible energy sources were
consumed. In this instance, complete the “Electricity” section. No data should be entered in any other energy source (fuel)
section. Go to the “Fuel-Switching Capability” section and complete the remainder of the questionnaire.
Example 2 - Butane is used as a feedstock to produce butylenes onsite. The butylene is then used as a feedstock to produce
butadiene which is shipped offsite. Report the butane used as a feedstock because it is not used as a fuel or shipped offsite.
Butylene would not be reported because its only means of supply was as a byproduct and it was only used as a feedstock.
Butadiene would not be reported as a shipment because it is not an identified energy source.
Fuel-Switching Capability
These questions are intended to measure the short-term capability of your establishment to use substitute energy sources in
place of those actually consumed in 2010. These substitutions are limited to those that could actually have been introduced
within 30 days without extensive modifications. More specific instructions for completing this section are included in the
questionnaire.
Energy-Management Activities
In this section, indicate whether your establishment participated in the listed energy-management activities during 2010 and the
source(s) of the financial support to implement the energy-management activity.
Technologies
Indicate any of the general technologies and technologies related to cogeneration present in this establishment.
Remarks
Please provide any explanations that may be helpful to us in understanding your reported data, including any Btu conversion
factors used, if different from those provided in the enclosed table.
If you are filing this questionnaire using the PDF’s on the Business Help Site and additional space is needed, attach a separate

Fuel Switching Capability: Electricity, Natural Gas and Total Coal
•

•

Capability to use substitute energy sources means that this establishment's combustors
(for example, boilers, furnaces, ovens, blast furnaces) had the equipment, either in
place or available for installation in 2010, so that substitutions could actually have been
introduced within 30 days without extensive modifications.
Include switching capability that could have resulted from the use of redundant and/or
standby combustors, and from combustors that were already equipped to fire alternative
fuels.
In addition to the capability of your equipment, when formulating your estimates:
o Make sure to consider both the equipment limitations of your boilers, heaters,
and combustors and any other practical reasons when determining the
availability of supply during 2010.
Equipment limitations include:
•
The boilers, heaters, or other fuel-consuming equipment are not capable of using anything other than specify fuel for
at least part of the operations.
•

Although the boilers, heaters, or combustors would allow using another fuel, doing so would adversely affect a
product. Ex. altering the pigment in a paint-drying application.

Practical reasons include:
•
There is no ready supply of an alternative energy source.
•

Environmental restrictions related to air quality limit the amount of the physically usable alternative fuel that could
be used instead.

•

A long-term contract in-place that requires the purchase of certain amounts of the energy source in any case.

•

Storage of alternative fuels is not available due to potential environmental impact of storage tanks.

Do not limit your estimated capability by differences in relative prices of energy
sources.
This section is intended to measure your capability to switch, not whether you would
switch if you could.
When estimating your capability to substitute other fuels for electricity receipts, please
consider the fuels that could be used to generate electricity onsite, as well as those that
could be directly substituted in combustors.
If records of fuel-switching capability are not regularly maintained, reasonable
approximations are acceptable.
Enter a zero if the fuel could not be switched for the specific energy source.
Please proceed through this section column-by-column.

What is the lowest percentage of price difference of the less expensive substitute that would cause
your establishment to switch from this fuel, regardless of whether or not your establishment
actually switched energy sources during 2010 or did so because of a less expensive substitute? (If
you have more than one possible alternative for the energy source, choose the fuel that would be
your most preferred alternative.)
The formula for percentage of price difference is:
•

Percent of Price Difference = ((PC-PA)/PC) * 100%

•

Where PC=Price per British thermal unit of current fuel

Referring to the quantity shown in question 8, please check all the reasons that made this quantity
unswitchable.
The boilers, heaters, or other fuelconsuming equipment are NOT
capable of using another fuel other
than this fuel for at least part of the
operations during the year.

528

Although the heating equipment
could use another fuel, there was no
readily available supply of it during
at least part of the year.

533

Environmental restrictions related
to air quality limit the amount of
the physically usable alternative
fuel that could be used instead.

534

A long-term contract is in-place
that requires the purchase of
certain amounts of this fuel in any
case.

536

Storage of usable alternative fuels is
not available due to potential
environmental impact of storage
tanks.

What is the lowest percentage of price difference of the less expensive substitute that would cause
your establishment to switch from this fuel, regardless of whether or not your establishment
actually switched energy sources during 2010 or did so because of a less expensive substitute? (If
you have more than one possible alternative for the energy source, choose the fuel that would be
your most preferred alternative.)
The formula for percentage of price difference is:
•

Percent of Price Difference = ((PC-PA)/PC) * 100%

•

Where PC=Price per British thermal unit of current fuel

•

PA=Price per British thermal unit of alternative fuel
