Seminole (FL)
BrownfieldPalatka, Putnam, Florida · Seminole Electric Cooperative Inc
Seminole (FL) is a coal plant in Palatka, Putnam, Florida, retired 2024-01-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 1,565 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.
