Sub 2 Generating Station
BrownfieldMacon, Macon, Missouri · City of Macon - (MO)
Sub 2 Generating Station is a oil plant in Macon, Macon, Missouri, retired 2023-05-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 4 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.
