BrownfieldQuincy, Plumas, California · Sierra Pacific Industries
Sierra Pacific Quincy Facility is a former biomass site in Quincy, Plumas, California, retired 2018-03-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 28 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.
