Agency GT
BrownfieldWest Burlington, Des Moines, Iowa · Interstate Power and Light Co
Agency GT is a natural gas plant in West Burlington, Des Moines, Iowa, retired 2010-11-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 79 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.
