Monroe Generating Station: FAQ
- Where is Monroe Generating Station?
- In Union County, North Carolina (NC). 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 Monroe Generating Station?

- Who owns Monroe Generating Station?
- EIA-860M names North Carolina Mun Power Agny #1 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 Monroe Generating Station LLC?
- Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — North Carolina Mun Power Agny #1 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 "Monroe Generating Station LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
