Stony Brook
BrownfieldLudlow, Hampden, Massachusetts · Massachusetts Mun Wholes Electric Co
Stony Brook is a natural gas plant in Ludlow, Hampden, Massachusetts. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 422 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.
