Where is Cashton?
In Monroe County, Wisconsin (WI). 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 Cashton?
4 MW of nameplate capacity across 3 units, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Cashton?
EIA-860M names Village of Cashton - (WI) 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 Cashton LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Village of Cashton - (WI) 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 "Cashton LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Cashton still running?
