Kotzebue Hybrid: FAQ

Where is Kotzebue Hybrid?
In NORTHWEST ARCTIC County, Alaska (AK). 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 Kotzebue Hybrid?
17 MW of nameplate capacity across 26 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Kotzebue Hybrid?
EIA-860M names Kotzebue Electric Assn 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 Kotzebue Hybrid LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Kotzebue Electric Assn 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 "Kotzebue Hybrid LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Kotzebue Hybrid still running?
EIA-860M files it as "Operating" for 2026-07. Statuses change monthly, and this page follows the monthly release.
