The story behind this New York power plant
New York has 100 natural gas plants in this category, and ATT Jericho in Huntington ranks #86 of 100 by 2024 electricity produced. It is a small, single-generator site owned by Bloom Energy and has been operating since 2017. It runs on fuel cell technology, which makes electricity from natural gas through a chemical reaction instead of by burning it.
In 2024 it produced 8.3 gigawatt-hours, a gigawatt-hour being a large unit of electricity, which is about 830 homes’ worth of use. Its capacity is 1.0 MW, or megawatt, the most power it can deliver at one moment. It ran at about 94 percent of that level across the year, a steady pace for a facility of this size.
Generation profile
The plant can produce 1 megawatt of electricity at once, across 1 generating unit. In 2024 it produced 8.3 gigawatt-hours in total, which works out to about 94% of what it could have produced running flat out all year — the pattern of a plant that runs through much of the year.
