Cobble Mountain: FAQ

Where is Cobble Mountain?
In Hampden County, Massachusetts (MA). 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 Cobble Mountain?

Who owns Cobble Mountain?
EIA-860M names City of Holyoke Gas and Elec Dept - (MA) 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 Cobble Mountain LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — City of Holyoke Gas and Elec Dept - (MA) 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 "Cobble Mountain LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Cobble Mountain still running?
