Calaveras Power Station, Power plant complex at Calaveras Lake, Texas, US.
The Calaveras Power Station consists of three main facilities: J.K. Spruce, O.W. Sommers, and J.T. Deely, generating electricity through coal and natural gas systems.
The development of Calaveras Power Station began in the late 1960s when an artificial lake was constructed to provide cooling water for the power generation units.
CPS Energy, the municipal utility operating the station, reflects San Antonio's commitment to maintaining local control over energy production and distribution systems.
The power station maintains a total generation capacity of over 2,300 megawatts through its combined units, supplying electricity to residents across the San Antonio region.
The facility receives coal deliveries from Wyoming's Powder River Basin through dedicated rail lines, with one to two trains arriving daily to maintain fuel supplies.
