Falls City: FAQ

Where is Falls City?
In Richardson County, Nebraska (NE). 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 Falls City?
31 MW of nameplate capacity across 9 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Falls City?

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