Oil-Fired Power Plants in the United States: FAQ
- Where can I find a map of oil-fired power plants in the United States?
- The map on this page. It plots every one of the 861 operating oil-fired power plants in the US that EIA-860M reports for 2026-07, at the coordinates EIA files for each plant. It is a US map: EIA-860M covers the fifty states and DC, so a North American map including Canada and Mexico is out of scope here.
- How many oil-fired power plants are there in the US?
- 861, totalling 31 GW of nameplate capacity across 3,622 generating units in 48 states. That is the EIA-860M count for 2026-07; Petroleum liquids and petroleum coke. Many are peakers or standby units.
- Is there a oil-fired power plant near me?
- Pick your state from the list below to get the oil-fired power plants in it, with the county each one sits in. The nearest plant to any address is whichever of those is closest — this site does not read your location.
- What is the largest oil-fired power plant in the USA?
- Oswego Harbor Power in New York, at 2 GW of nameplate capacity. The full list on this page is sorted largest first.
- Where does this data come from, and how current is it?
- The US Energy Information Administration's form EIA-860M, the preliminary monthly electric generator inventory, for 2026-07. It is a survey of plants of 1 MW and above; anything smaller is not in it, and nothing on this page is estimated to fill that gap.
