Suwannee River: FAQ

Where is Suwannee River?
In Suwannee County, Florida (FL). 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 Suwannee River?

Who owns Suwannee River?
EIA-860M names Duke Energy Florida, LLC 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 Suwannee River LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Duke Energy Florida, LLC 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 "Suwannee River LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Suwannee River still running?
