Turkey Point
BrownfieldHomestead, Miami Dade, Florida · Florida Power & Light Co
Turkey Point is a oil plant in Homestead, Miami Dade, Florida, retired 2016-10-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 818 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.
