Innovative Solar 23: FAQ

Where is Innovative Solar 23?

Who owns Innovative Solar 23?
EIA-860M names SRE Utility Solar 1, LLC 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 Innovative Solar 23 LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — SRE Utility Solar 1, LLC 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 "Innovative Solar 23 LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
