Generating Units in Nebraska
(Utilities and Nonutilities, as of January 1, 2007)

The units generating electricity are listed in the table, each with unit ID, capacity, prime mover, energy source, year of commercial operation, status, number of wind turbines if applicable, and ownership.  The key to the abbreviations is below the table.

Also see the Units and Capacity by Energy Source and Year of Initial Operation report and the Units and Capacity by Energy Source report for additional information.

A Note About Nameplate Capacity

Summer capacity and winter capacity is sometimes greater than nameplate capacity.  The nameplate gives the capacity rating of the generator when it operates at certain temperatures, pressures, and power factors.  With some modifications and with some margins that are built into generators, it is possible to exceed its nameplate.  It is not uncommon for a generator to exceed its nameplate.  The nameplate is usually not replaced and, in this case, the summer and winter capacity is often much higher than the nameplate value.  Normally, you expect summer and winter capacity to be below nameplate capacity and in most cases they are.
