Google Bayhill Solar PV and Microgrid: FAQ

Where is Google Bayhill Solar PV and Microgrid?
In San Mateo County, California (CA). The map on this page is placed at the coordinates EIA files for the plant, which locate the site rather than any individual unit.
How big is Google Bayhill Solar PV and Microgrid?

Who owns Google Bayhill Solar PV and Microgrid?
EIA-860M names Google, Inc. as the reporting entity. That is the operator of record on the survey, which is not always the ultimate owner.
Is this the same as Google Bayhill Solar PV and Microgrid LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Google, Inc. here — not the project company that holds the asset. Project companies are commonly registered as an LLC carrying the plant's name, so a search for "Google Bayhill Solar PV and Microgrid LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Google Bayhill Solar PV and Microgrid still running?
