North Bay Solar 1: FAQ

Where is North Bay Solar 1?
In Solano County, California (CA). The map on this page is placed at the coordinates EIA files for the plant, which locate the site rather than any individual unit.

Who owns North Bay Solar 1?

Is this the same as North Bay Solar 1 LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — AES Distributed Energy 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 "North Bay Solar 1 LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
