San Jose Cogeneration: FAQ

Where is San Jose Cogeneration?
In Santa Clara County, California (CA). 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 San Jose Cogeneration?
6 MW of nameplate capacity across 1 unit, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns San Jose Cogeneration?
EIA-860M names San Jose State University Fclts Dev &Ops 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 San Jose Cogeneration LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — San Jose State University Fclts Dev &Ops 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 "San Jose Cogeneration LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is San Jose Cogeneration still running?
EIA-860M files it as "Operating" for 2026-07. Statuses change monthly, and this page follows the monthly release.
