El Segundo Cogen: FAQ

Where is El Segundo Cogen?

Who owns El Segundo Cogen?
EIA-860M names Chevron USA Inc-El Segundo 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 El Segundo Cogen LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Chevron USA Inc-El Segundo 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 "El Segundo Cogen LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
