BrownfieldWallingford, New Haven, Connecticut · Connecticut Mun Elec Engy Coop
John Street 1, 3, 4 & 5 is a oil plant in Wallingford, New Haven, Connecticut, retired 2018-02-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 7 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.
