Frank E Ratts
BrownfieldPetersburg, Pike, Indiana · Hoosier Energy R E C, Inc
Frank E Ratts is a coal plant in Petersburg, Pike, Indiana, retired 2015-03-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 233 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.
