BrownfieldEdwardsport, Knox, Indiana · Duke Energy Indiana, LLC
Edwardsport is a coal plant in Edwardsport, Knox, Indiana, retired 2011-03-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 144 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.
