A L Pierce
BrownfieldWallingford, New Haven, Connecticut · MPH AL Pierce, LLC
A L Pierce is a oil plant in Wallingford, New Haven, Connecticut, retired 2000-07-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 23 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.
