Output over time

Net generation · MWhElectricity produced after the plant’s own use. A negative value means it used more electricity than it produced.Definition ↗

Annual net generation · MWh. Bars below zero are negative net generation; a hollow mark means not reported. Missing years are not filled.

Ownership & operation

Ownership basisHow a generator's owners were established: from EIA-860's ownership schedule (reported), from EIA's rule that a unit absent from a complete schedule is wholly owned by its operator (derived), or unknown.Definition ↗

Operating nameplate MW x ownership fraction, once per generator; reported schedule or EIA-860 schedule-4 default. Ownership source & rules ↗

Generators at this plant

Unscaled nameplateA generator’s rated maximum power, in MW. Capacity is a rating, not how much electricity it produced.Definition ↗

USACE's revised (CBT-REV) river and reservoir series at the project this plant belongs to, as the CWMS Data API served them.

The API serves these series unversioned: USACE revises values in place, so a later retrieval can differ. These are the publisher's revised series as served at the retrieval time recorded with each query. Each value keeps the CWMS quality code it was served with; code 0 is CWMS's code for an unscreened value. A value served with CDA's missing-value placeholder, or with a code that marks it missing or rejected, is shown as missing. Codes served here: 0. Keyed by USACE’s own alias: USACE's NIDID agency-alias group maps NID OR00001 (this plant's reviewed dam) to NWDP location BON; CWMS location 'Bonneville Lock and Dam' is a PROJECT in OR, 0.25 km from the EIA plant point; its name shares 'bonneville' with the NID dam name.

CO2 filed by EPA-monitored units

This plant has no coal, gas, oil or waste generator, so it has no combustion unit for EPA to monitor and no CEMS data exists. That is not a claim of zero emissions: the atlas reports only what EPA-monitored units filed. Source

Lifecycle of the units

Each unit's operating span from its reported operating date to its retirement date or to the August 2026 inventory (the vertical line). Dashed spans start at a planned operating date, a forecast; a short bar marks a planned retirement. Standby and out-of-service units are hatched.

Megan M. Johnson, Shih-Chieh Kao and Rocio Uría-Martínez. 2026. Existing Hydropower Assets (EHA) Plant Database, 2026. HydroSource. Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA. DOI: 10.21951/EHA_FY2026/3374497

Only the EHA plant identifier, plant name and water body of reviewed rows are republished, as identity beside the EIA plant; EHA capacity and generation are not loaded and never enter any total. An EHA record without an EIA plant id has no entity here.

Hydropower Infrastructure – LAkes, Reservoirs, and RIvers (HILARRI), Version 4 (2026-05-05; DOI 10.21951/HILARRI/3362570; links EHA 2025 plants to NID dams of 2025-08-18, GRanD v1.3, NHDPlusV2 and HUC12)

Hansen, C. H., Matson, P. G., Bozeman, B. B., Turner, S. W. D. 2026. Hydropower Infrastructure – LAkes, Reservoirs, and RIvers (HILARRI) v4. HydroSource. Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA. DOI: 10.21951/HILARRI/3362570

A crosswalk of identifiers, not attributes: the HILARRI row id and its GRanD, NHDPlusV2 flowline and HUC12 ids are republished for reviewed rows only. HILARRI's own quality flags are kept on each row; a link is not a reservoir volume, a flow or a generation series.

National Inventory of Dams, national export dated 2026-09-11 (dam id, name, river, purposes and coordinates used to verify each HILARRI dam link)

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, National Inventory of Dams (export of 2026-09-11)

The NID id and dam name identify the structure the plant sits at, as HILARRI links it and the 2026-09-11 export confirms it. NID purposes are recorded on the row as the inventory states them (Grand Coulee's NID record lists no hydroelectric purpose). Dam height, storage and hazard fields are not loaded.

Display names and aliases (pipeline/config/crosswalks/aliases.csv)

Display names verified against each organization's own website; EIA legal names retained as aliases

A display name is the name an organization uses for itself; the EIA name stays searchable and on the record. Each row cites the page that shows the name.

CWMS Data API revised (CBT-REV) series for the January 2024 episode window at Grand Coulee (office NWDP, location GCL: hourly forebay elevation, hourly outflow, daily inflow), Lower Granite (LWG: hourly outflow and spill) and Bonneville (BON: hourly outflow and tailwater elevation), the location records that key the four Lower Snake dams (LWG, LGS, LMN, IHR) and every reviewed dam USACE's NIDID alias group names

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Northwestern Division, CWMS Data API (revised CBT series, as served at retrieval)

USACE's revised hourly and daily series for three projects over one episode window, and the keys of six, as the CWMS Data API served them at the retrieval time recorded in the manifest. The API serves them unversioned and USACE revises values in place, so a later retrieval can differ; each value keeps the CWMS quality code it was served with. Elevation is feet above the location's own vertical datum; flows are cubic feet per second. The Lower Snake series this API served nothing for come from USACE's Dataquery (usace-dataquery-history), never mixed with these. Water quantities, not generation. Grand Coulee storage is not shown until its capacity-table basis is settled.
