AES Warrior Run Cogeneration Facility
BrownfieldCumberland, Allegany, Maryland · AES WR Ltd Partnership
AES Warrior Run Cogeneration Facility is a coal plant in Cumberland, Allegany, Maryland, retired 2024-06-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 229 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.
