- Status detail: Tait Electric Generating Station is operating with 11 operating units. The IC1–IC4 units are petroleum-liquid internal-combustion units, while GT1–GT7 are natural-gas/distillate-fuel-oil combustion turbines. A 2026 ownership transaction involving Tait was expected to close in the third quarter, but the plant itself remains an operating peaking facility. S&P Global assumes an economic life through 2040 for Tait; this is an analytical asset-life assumption, not a formally announced retirement date. — Research Update: MPH GridFlex LLC's Senior Secure | S&P Global Ratings · confidence: medium

## Data quality

- Plant-level records report 680.6 MW of nameplate capacity and 607.1 MW of summer capacity, while the 2026 sale announcement describes Tait as a 586 MW dual-fuel facility; the figures are retained as reported and are not treated as interchangeable. The public materials identify staged unit additions through 2002 but do not identify a later retirement or repowering program; the plant is reported as operational. The 2026 Hull Street Energy transaction remained subject to regulatory approvals in the cited announcement, and the FERC docket materials show an application and supplemental filing rather than a documented closing. The $1,763,053 figure reported in local property records refers to the Tait station land transfer and should not be treated as the consideration for the full power-plant portfolio. The acquisition announcement identifies a term loan and revolving credit facility but does not disclose the financing amount or lender names.
