Stafford: FAQ
- Where is Stafford?
- 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 Stafford?
- 5 MW of nameplate capacity across 4 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
- Who owns Stafford?

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