Viresco Turtle Lake: FAQ

Where is Viresco Turtle Lake?
In Polk County, Wisconsin (WI). 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 Viresco Turtle Lake?
3 MW of nameplate capacity across 2 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Viresco Turtle Lake?
EIA-860M names Viresco Turtle Lake 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 Viresco Turtle Lake LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Viresco Turtle Lake 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 "Viresco Turtle Lake LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Viresco Turtle Lake still running?
EIA-860M files it as "Operating" for 2026-07. Statuses change monthly, and this page follows the monthly release.
