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.

Why capacity and output differ: field note ↗

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 ↗
  • OperatorThe organization that runs a plant. It may have different owners.Definition ↗Echo 1
  • OwnerAn organization with a reported share of a generator. Owned MW applies that share to operating nameplate capacity; it does not establish who buys the output.Definition ↗ Independent power producerEcho 1
    9.9MW owned

CO2 filed by EPA-monitored units

2024

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

No confirmed status or capacity changes among comparable units. Missing monthly assertions and units outside the baseline have no like-for-like comparison.

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.

Geographic & reporting context

Balancing authority: PacifiCorp West

Approximate service areasAn approximate utility service area. The boundary cannot identify the supplier for a particular address.Definition ↗ containing the plant’s location. A geographic candidate, not a supply relationship.

Nearby transmission Context, not a connection

Within 3 km of the reported plant point, nearest first. BPA’s published lines, HIFLD-compiled lines of other owners and HIFLD 2022 substations; nearness does not establish an electrical connection.
