Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Southern California Edison Co 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 "Kaweah 1 LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.

Is Kaweah 1 still running?

EIA-860M files it as "Out of service and NOT expected to return to service in next calendar year" for 2026-07. Statuses change monthly, and this page follows the monthly release.
