Energy Program Insights

Energy Program Insights includes approximately 200 key metrics representing a cross-section of our data foundations: Built Environment Foundation, Climate & Hazards Foundation, and People & Vulnerabilities Foundation that best align with energy program goals.

Review the layers available in Analyst and the available schemas to start working with Location Insights. You can also learn more about the supported hazards.

Energy Program Insights Layers

Energy Program Insights (available from our Insights Catalog) offers insights about key metrics about the community, its surrounding environment, and potential hazard impacts for utility service territories at supported geographies. These layers (Energy Program Insights - <census unit>) reflect the metrics included in the Energy Program Insights schema, which you can review online or export directly from Analyst.

Energy Program Insights Schema

We're providing a copy of the complete Energy Program schema for reference. Refer to Energy Program Insights Hazard Summary for information about the supported hazards and scenarios included in the schemas. When working with data schemas, you can navigate information in them by:

  • Searching for terms on the page using Command ⌘+F (Mac) or Ctrl+F (Windows).

  • Clicking in the schema window and then copying and pasting the content into a spreadsheet application to look at the details more closely.

Energy Program Insights Hazard Summary

Energy Program Insights – Hazard Values and Aggregation Levels summarizes the hazard exposures for the Energy Program insights at the aggregation levels from Base Canvas and Homeland Infrastructure Foundation-Level Data (HIFLD) including total population, total households, total employees, and land area, electric power generation sites, and electric power substations. See Supported Geographies for a complete list of aggregation levels.

The Energy Program Insights layers and schemas include these metrics.
