The Frank A. Tracy Generating Station is a 12 unit 1,021-megawatt (1,369,000 hp) gas-fired power station located in Storey County, Nevada and owned by NV Energy, serving Reno and the Tahoe Reno Industrial Center. Some peaking capacity is provided by diesel powered units.[1] The station employs reduced water consumption,[2] and emits about 1½ million tons CO2 per year.[3][4] It lies just east of the Patrick area, about 17 miles east of Reno, just off Interstate 80, between Exit 28 and Exit 32. It is situated on the south bank of the Truckee River, which forms the county line between Storey County and Washoe County on the other side of the river.
