Nutrien Kenai Nitrogen Operations
BrownfieldKenai, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska · Nutrien US LLC
Nutrien Kenai Nitrogen Operations is a natural gas plant in Kenai, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska, retired 2001-12-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 9 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.
