Alliant SBD 9901 Wells Fargo
BrownfieldCedar Rapids, Linn, Iowa · Industrial Energy Applications Inc
Alliant SBD 9901 Wells Fargo is a oil plant in Cedar Rapids, Linn, Iowa, retired 2020-12-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 1 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.
