Childs
BrownfieldCamp Verde, Yavapai, Arizona · Arizona Public Service Co
Childs is a former hydro site in Camp Verde, Yavapai, Arizona, retired 2005-06-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 5 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.
