Marina Landfill Gas
BrownfieldMarina, Monterey, California · Monterey Regional Waste Mgmt
Marina Landfill Gas is a natural gas plant in Marina, Monterey, California, retired 2018-07-01. 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.
