How big is Red Cloud?

6 MW of nameplate capacity across 4 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.

EIA-860M names City of Red Cloud - (NE) as the reporting entity. That is the operator of record on the survey, which is not always the ultimate owner.

Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — City of Red Cloud - (NE) 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 "Red Cloud LLC" usually means this site.
