Where is Ameresco Johnson Canyon?
In Monterey 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.

Who owns Ameresco Johnson Canyon?

Is this the same as Ameresco Johnson Canyon LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Ameresco Johnson Canyon LLC 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 "Ameresco Johnson Canyon LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
