GRS Lyon
BrownfieldNew Hudson, Washtenaw, Michigan · Gas Recovery Systems Inc
GRS Lyon is a natural gas plant in New Hudson, Washtenaw, Michigan, retired 2010-12-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 5 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.
