Channelview Cogeneration Plant: FAQ

Where is Channelview Cogeneration Plant?
In Harris County, Texas (TX). The map on this page is placed at the coordinates EIA files for the plant, which locate the site rather than any individual unit.

Who owns Channelview Cogeneration Plant?

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