University of Rochester: FAQ

Where is University of Rochester?
In Monroe County, New York (NY). 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 University of Rochester?
25 MW of nameplate capacity across 2 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns University of Rochester?
EIA-860M names University of Rochester 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 University of Rochester LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — University of Rochester 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 "University of Rochester LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is University of Rochester still running?
EIA-860M files it as "Out of service but expected to return to service in next calendar year" for 2026-07. Statuses change monthly, and this page follows the monthly release.
