Talbot County Energy: FAQ

Where is Talbot County Energy?
In Talbot County, Georgia (GA). The map on this page is placed at the coordinates EIA files for the plant, which locate the site rather than any individual unit.

726 MW of nameplate capacity across 6 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Talbot County Energy?
EIA-860M names Oglethorpe Power Corporation 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 Talbot County Energy LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Oglethorpe Power Corporation 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 "Talbot County Energy LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Talbot County Energy still running?
