The Niagara Falls Hydroelectric Power and Manufacturing Company (NFHP) was located on the lower river north of Niagara Falls

The Niagara Falls Power Company (NFPC) was located upriver from Niagara Falls and produced the electricity used not only to power industry in the immediate vicinity of the Falls but also to be transmitted to Buffalo, Tonawanda, Lockport and beyond. This plant is often referred to as the "Adams Plant," named so after Edward Dean Adams, president of the Cataract Construction Company, which erected the original power stations at Niagara Falls and gave financial stability to the NFPC. (Adams would also direct the NFPC.)
