Dale
BrownfieldWinchester, Clark, Kentucky · East Kentucky Power Coop, Inc
Dale is a coal plant in Winchester, Clark, Kentucky, retired 2016-04-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 216 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.
