Big Bend II Solar: FAQ
- Where is Big Bend II Solar?

- 46 MW of nameplate capacity across 1 unit, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
- Who owns Big Bend II Solar?
- EIA-860M names Tampa Electric Co 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 Big Bend II Solar LLC?
- Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Tampa Electric Co 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 "Big Bend II Solar LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
