myeia is a simple Python wrapper for the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) APIv2. It is designed to be simple to use and to provide a consistent interface for accessing EIA data.
pip install myeia- pandas
- requests
- python-dotenv
To obtain an API Key you need to register on the EIA website.
To find all EIA Datasets visit API Dashboard.
from myeia.api import API
eia = API()By Default the EIA class will look for your API EIA_TOKEN.
If you have registered for an API key you can set it in your .env file.
EIA_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN_HERELets look at an example of how to get the EIA Natural Gas Futures.
You can use the simpler v1 API method where you only need to pass the series_id or you can use the newer v2 API method where you need to pass the route, series, and frequency.
df = eia.get_series(series_id="NG.RNGC1.D")
df = eia.get_series_via_route(
route="natural-gas/pri/fut",
series="RNGC1",
frequency="daily",
)
df.head()Output Example:
Natural Gas Futures Contract 1 (Dollars per Million Btu)

Lets look at another example the Total OPEC Petroleum Supply where the facet is available as seriesId. By Default it is set as series but we can define the facet as seriesId.
df = eia.get_series(series_id="STEO.PAPR_OPEC.M")
df = eia.get_series_via_route(
route="steo",
series="PAPR_OPEC",
frequency="monthly",
facet="seriesId",
)
df.head()Output Example:
Total OPEC Petroleum Supply
