MTHS Co-Gen Buildings: FAQ

Where is MTHS Co-Gen Buildings?
In Cook County, Illinois (IL). 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 MTHS Co-Gen Buildings?

Who owns MTHS Co-Gen Buildings?
EIA-860M names Maine Township High School Dist 207 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 MTHS Co-Gen Buildings LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Maine Township High School Dist 207 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 "MTHS Co-Gen Buildings LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
