Yellowhammer Gas Plant
BrownfieldCoden, MOBILE, Alabama · W&T Offshore Inc
Yellowhammer Gas Plant is a natural gas plant in Coden, MOBILE, Alabama, retired 2021-01-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 3 MW of generation, so the grid hookup, transmission rights, and often cooling-water access are already in place — collapsing the speed-to-power timeline versus a greenfield build.
