Gila Bend Power Generation Station
BrownfieldGila Bend, Maricopa, Arizona · Gila Bend Power Partners LLC
Gila Bend Power Generation Station is a natural gas plant in Gila Bend, Maricopa, Arizona. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 900 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.
