Carmi: FAQ

Where is Carmi?
In White County, Illinois (IL). 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 Carmi?
13 MW of nameplate capacity across 7 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Carmi?
EIA-860M names City of Carmi - (IL) 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 Carmi LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — City of Carmi - (IL) 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 "Carmi LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Carmi still running?
