Dearborn Industrial Generation: FAQ

Where is Dearborn Industrial Generation?

Who owns Dearborn Industrial Generation?

Is this the same as Dearborn Industrial Generation LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Dearborn Industrial Gen Inc 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 "Dearborn Industrial Generation LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Dearborn Industrial Generation still running?
