The data are related to the research article “Structural estimation of switching costs for peaking power plants,” https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2019.03.031. Fleten et al., 2019 We display the operating status of peaking power plants as they were reported annually to the United States Energy Information Administration during 2001–2009. Operating status can either be operating, on standby, or retired. Changes in operating status allow us to infer shutdowns, startups, and retirements. We also derive annual profitability indicators.
