BrownfieldTrinidad, Las Animas, Colorado · City of Trinidad - (CO)
Trinidad (CO) is a coal plant in Trinidad, Las Animas, Colorado, retired 2017-01-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 4 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.
