BrownfieldMt Pleasant, Henry, Iowa · City of Mt Pleasant - (IA)
Mt Pleasant is a natural gas plant in Mt Pleasant, Henry, Iowa, retired 2002-01-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 9 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.
