Dinner Lake
BrownfieldSebring, Highlands, Florida · Tampa Electric Co
Dinner Lake is a natural gas plant in Sebring, Highlands, Florida, retired 2003-01-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 13 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.
