Here's a link to an NPR page that has depictions of US electrical generating and distributing infrastructure. Link (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=110997398&ps=cprs).
I thought it was interesting to see where which power sources predominated.
Casual observation in my area suggests that the list they received from US EPA omitted a number of smaller biomass (e.g. E. Moline, IL WWTP), hydro (Rock Island Arsenal and City of Rock Island IL) and wind power projects (too numerous to list) in the 1-5 MW capacity range.
