UCONN Cogen Facility: FAQ

Where is UCONN Cogen Facility?
In Tolland County, Connecticut (CT). 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 UCONN Cogen Facility?
26 MW of nameplate capacity across 4 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns UCONN Cogen Facility?
EIA-860M names University of Connecticut 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 UCONN Cogen Facility LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — University of Connecticut 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 "UCONN Cogen Facility LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is UCONN Cogen Facility still running?
