NLMU Diesel: FAQ

Where is NLMU Diesel?
In Henry County, Iowa (IA). 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 NLMU Diesel?

Who owns NLMU Diesel?
EIA-860M names New London Municipal Utilities - (IA) 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 NLMU Diesel LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — New London Municipal Utilities - (IA) 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 "NLMU Diesel LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is NLMU Diesel still running?
