Instructions for Completing Form EIA-846
General Instructions:
• 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 on page 6 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 the form, 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 for all energy sources within a question before moving on to the next question.
• 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 Types Use as Energy" section and enter the data there.

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:
◦ LPG
◦ Coal coke
◦ Petroleum coke
◦ Breeze
◦ Coke oven gas
◦ Blast furnace gas
◦ Acetylene
◦ Hydrogen
◦ Diesel or distillate fuel oil; and
◦ Residual fuel oil.
If your only means of an energy source during 2014 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 energies 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) Liquefied Petroleum Gases (LPG) and Natural Gas Liquids (NGL)
▪ Butane
▪ Ethane
▪ Propane
▪ Mixtures of Butane, Ethane, and Propane
▪ Other LPG and NGL which includes butylenes, ethylene, and propylene
Coal
Breeze Coal Coke
• Anthracite
• Bituminous and subbituminous
• Lignite

• Waste and Byproduct Gases (e.g., flue gas, off gas, plant gas, refinery gas, still gas, vent gas)
• Pulping and Black Liquor
• Agricultural Waste (e.g., bagasse, nut shells, orchard prunings, rice hulls)
• 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 2014. 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 2014 and the source(s) of the financial support to implement the energy-management activity.
Technologies
Indicate any of the technologies present in this establishment. Listed technologies include general technologies that may be found in any manufacturing establishment and technologies related to cogeneration.
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.
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.
Conversion Factors Table
To the right are Btu conversion factors that should be used only if you do not know the actual Btu factor of the fuels consumed at your establishment site.
If your establishment uses more precise conversion values for your operations, such as the conversion factors used for the Green House Gas (GHG) Reporting Rule, use them in place of the approximations given below. However, please identify in the Remarks section (page xx), the conversion factor(s) used, if different from those listed to the right.
General Definitions:
Btu = British thermal unit(s) One barrel = 42 gallons
One short ton = 2,000 pounds
Examples of conversion from physical quantities to Btu include:
• Your establishment consumed 250 cubic feet of hydrogen in 2014.
The Btu equivalent is:
(250 cubic feet) x (325.11 Btu/cubic foot)
= 81,277.5 Btu
= 0.0813 million Btu
• Your establishment consumed 300 pounds of hydrogen in 2014.
The Btu equivalent is:
(300 pounds) x (61,084 Btu/pound)
= 18,325,200 Btu
= 18.325 million Btu

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 2014, 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:
◦ 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 2014.
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. (e.g., 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.
