St John: FAQ

Where is St John?
In Stafford County, Kansas (KS). 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 St John?
7 MW of nameplate capacity across 4 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns St John?
EIA-860M names City of St. John - (KS) 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 St John LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — City of St. John - (KS) 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 "St John LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is St John still running?
