Where is Argyle?
In Lafayette 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 Argyle?

Who owns Argyle?

Project companies are commonly registered as an LLC carrying the plant's name, so a search for "Argyle LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
