USA Power Plants
 The
USA Power Plants map series shows the general location and characteristics
of all power plants in a state with over 1 megawatt of generating
capacity. Information is based on U.S. EPA power plant data (2000)
and data from the American Wind Energy Association. Total generation,
capacity, emissions and fuel needs are tallied for all generation
selected by the viewer, so visitors can observe the contributions
to total emissions made by the utilization of various fuel types.
The viewer can toggle facilities on and off by fuel type, zoom in
and out to gain a better understanding of the general location of
a facility, and click on the facility for more detailed information
about its characteristics (such as what secondary fuel types it
may use).
If you have more current information on a facility
or know of a project not currently shown that you would like to
see posted, please let us know.
