65th largest plant in Indiana · 2692nd nationally
Indiana Harbor E 5 Ac Station is a other fossil power plant in Indiana with a nameplate capacity of 90.0 MW. It generates roughly 663.0k MWh per year — enough to power about 63,147 average U.S. homes.
Its capacity factor of 84% means it runs nearly around-the-clock as baseload generation. At 3205 lb CO₂/MWh, its emission rate sits above the national grid average of roughly 800 lb/MWh.
Ghost bars are each month's theoretical maximum (90.0 MW nameplate × hours in the month). Filled bars are actual net generation reported to EIA Form 923. The gap between them is capacity factor made visible.
