Black Mountain Generating Station: FAQ

- Who owns Black Mountain Generating Station?

- Is this the same as Black Mountain Generating Station LLC?
- Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — UNS Electric, Inc here — not the project company that holds the asset.
