[1] The facility is located near Horseshoe Bay in Llano County, Texas, United States.

Cooling water is provided by Lake LBJ, a freshwater reservoir created by Wirtz Dam.

The LCRA broke ground in April 2012 on the plant to replace the existing single-unit natural gas fired 420 megawatt turbine completed in 1974.
