BrownfieldHopkinton, Delaware, Iowa · City of Hopkinton - (IA)
Hopkinton is a oil plant in Hopkinton, Delaware, Iowa, retired 2011-05-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 3 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.
