ENGIE North America's official project page (doc_id 3) identifies the project and the owner/operator; a contemporaneous industry press report (doc_id 5) describing ENGIE North America's start of construction corroborates ENGIE's ownership/role.
Monthly generation is reported through EIA-923. Capacity factor uses the current EIA nameplate capacity and is shown only for complete calendar years.

Capacity factor is average output vs. this plant's observed peak.
Observed ERCOT settlement prices at WL_RANCH_RN over 365 days (2025-10-27 to 2026-10-26).
The TB2 figure is a price benchmark, not revenue: it values one perfect-foresight cycle per day between the 2 cheapest and 2 dearest hours of each day, gross of round-trip losses, and excludes ancillary services and any physical dispatch constraint. It describes what this node’s price shape was worth over the window — it is not this asset’s realized capture, and no dispatch is assumed or modelled.
