Abstract: DOE will generate a publicly-accessible "crowd-sourced" map that discloses consumer access to electricity consumption data and the ability to share that data with third parties. This requires DOE to collect information about data access and sharing services offered to customers by electricity providers. EERE has developed an online questionnaire device that captures and publishes the necessary information as a series of web-based maps. DOE is requesting a 3-year approval for this information collection request.
