New Milford Gas Recovery
BrownfieldNew Milford, Litchfield, Connecticut · WM Renewable Energy LLC
New Milford Gas Recovery is a natural gas plant in New Milford, Litchfield, Connecticut, retired 2007-09-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 3 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.
