Riviera
BrownfieldRiviera Beach, Palm Beach, Florida · Florida Power & Light Co
Riviera is a oil plant in Riviera Beach, Palm Beach, Florida, retired 2011-02-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 621 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.
