Eddystone Generating Station: FAQ
- Where is Eddystone Generating Station?
- In Delaware County, Pennsylvania (PA). 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 Eddystone Generating Station?
- 862 MW of nameplate capacity across 6 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
- Who owns Eddystone Generating Station?
- EIA-860M names Constellation Power, Inc 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 Eddystone Generating Station LLC?
- Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Constellation Power, 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 "Eddystone Generating Station LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
