BrownfieldPaulding, Jasper, Mississippi · Cooperative Energy
Paulding is a oil plant in Paulding, Jasper, Mississippi, retired 2017-08-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 20 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.
