Mitchell (GA)
BrownfieldAlbany, Dougherty, Georgia · Georgia Power Co
Mitchell (GA) is a coal plant in Albany, Dougherty, Georgia, retired 2016-08-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 344 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.
