Upper Barker: FAQ

Where is Upper Barker?
In Androscoggin County, Maine (ME). 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 Upper Barker?

Who owns Upper Barker?
EIA-860M names KEI (Maine) Power Management (III) LLC 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 Upper Barker LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — KEI (Maine) Power Management (III) 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 "Upper Barker LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Upper Barker still running?
