BrownfieldHoisington, Barton, Kansas · City of Hoisington - (KS)
Hoisington is a natural gas plant in Hoisington, Barton, Kansas, retired 2021-06-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 7 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.
