Gorge 18: FAQ

Where is Gorge 18?
In Chittenden County, Vermont (VT). 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 Gorge 18?
3 MW of nameplate capacity across 1 unit, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Gorge 18?
EIA-860M names Green Mountain Power Corp 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 Gorge 18 LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Green Mountain Power Corp 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 "Gorge 18 LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
