The E.D. Edwards Power Plant is an inoperative coal-fired generating plant owned by Vistra Energy. The plant, with a nameplate capacity of 780 megawatts, was connected with the high-tension power supply lines of Central Illinois. It is located on the Illinois River and the Union Pacific Railroad, adjacent to the municipality of Bartonville. The Edwards plant, built by the former Central Illinois Light Company (CILCO), began operations in 1960. Ameren owned the plant until it was acquired by Dynegy in 2013. Dynegy was purchased by Vistra Energy in April 2018.
