Pineville
BrownfieldFour Mile, Bell, Kentucky · Kentucky Utilities Co
Pineville is a coal plant in Four Mile, Bell, Kentucky, retired 2002-01-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 38 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.
