Hamilton Hydro: FAQ

Where is Hamilton Hydro?
In Butler County, Ohio (OH). 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 Hamilton Hydro?
EIA-860M names City of Hamilton - (OH) 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 Hamilton Hydro LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — City of Hamilton - (OH) 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 "Hamilton Hydro LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Hamilton Hydro still running?
