BrownfieldDubuque, Dubuque, Iowa · John Deere Dubuque Works
John Deere Dubuque Works is a coal plant in Dubuque, Dubuque, Iowa, retired 2010-11-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 14 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.
