- Abstract
- The Platts Generating Stations geospatial data layer contains point features representing power generating facilities in Europe. Although a power plant may have multiple generators, or units, the power plant layer represents all units at a plant as one feature. Detailed attribute information associated with the power plant layer includes fuel types, prime movers, and operational status.
- Purpose
- The Platts Generating Stations geospatial data layer was created to show the locations of existing and proposed electric generating facilities in Europe.
