Regulus Solar Power Plant
BrownfieldBakersfield, California
Regulus Solar Power Plant is a former brownfield site in Bakersfield, California. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 82 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.
