Orchard Avenue 1: FAQ
- Where is Orchard Avenue 1?
- In Yakima County, Washington (WA). 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 Orchard Avenue 1?
- 2 MW of nameplate capacity across 2 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
- Who owns Orchard Avenue 1?
- EIA-860M names Yakima-Tieton Irrigation Dist 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 Orchard Avenue 1 LLC?
- Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Yakima-Tieton Irrigation Dist 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 "Orchard Avenue 1 LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
- Is Orchard Avenue 1 still running?
