KEYSTONE, a 70 MW Hydro power plant in Tulsa County, Oklahoma. Operated by USCE-TULSA DISTRICT, commissioned 1968.
How KEYSTONE compares
With 70 MW of capacity, KEYSTONE ranks 55th among the 73 operating power plants Bywatts maps in Oklahoma and 7th of the 11 operating Hydro plants in the state. It accounts for about 6.4% of Oklahoma's operating Hydro capacity and 0.3% of all operating capacity in the state. Nationally it is the 233rd-largest of the 1,243 operating Hydro plants in the database. Commissioned in 1968, it is older than 72% of the 72 operating Oklahoma plants with a recorded commissioning year. Its operator, USCE-TULSA DISTRICT, runs 7 operating plants in Oklahoma totaling 514 MW. It shares Tulsa County with 4 other operating plants, including RIVERSIDE and GREEN COUNTRY ENERGY LLC.
EIA-860 lists 2 generators at the site with 70 MW of nameplate capacity, all conventional hydroelectric technology. Net generation was 1.6 GWh in 2024 (a 0.3% capacity factor), down 99% from 2022.

Weather peril exposure
KEYSTONE is a 70 MW hydro power plant in Tulsa County, OK, operated by USCE-TULSA DISTRICT, commissioned in 1968. Tulsa County carries high modeled catastrophe exposure in the FEMA National Risk Index, scoring 3.6 of 5 at the 64th national percentile. Ice storm is the leading peril, rated Very High by FEMA at the 83rd percentile.
The Bywatts loss layer is calibrated to solar PV hardware, so it is not applied to a hydro plant. The ratings below are the FEMA National Risk Index county hazard ratings for this location.
