Please be aware that
The data are reported by EIA one year at a time, in each edition, which we have concatenated into time series; these results use successive currency base years. Because this impedes analysis, we have constructed corresponding series with a constant base year, viz., at 2018 prices. We used CPI-U as the deflator.
These are projections with a horizon of four to six years, and we have stored them by edition date. For example, the 2019 value is the projection for 2023, as reported in the 2019 edition of AEO. We cannot store them by projected date, because 2016 and 2022 are repeated and 2021 is omitted. Please see the background in Mnemonic 411.
