Reilly Tar & Chemical (Indianapolis)
BrownfieldIndianapolis, Indiana
Reilly Tar & Chemical (Indianapolis) is a former superfund site in Indianapolis, Indiana. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 11 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.
