Where is Cottage Street Solar Facility?

Who owns Cottage Street Solar Facility?

Is this the same as Cottage Street Solar Facility LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Western Massachusetts Electric Company 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 "Cottage Street Solar Facility LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
