Kimball
BrownfieldKimball, Kimball, Nebraska · City of Kimball - (NE)
Kimball is a oil plant in Kimball, Kimball, Nebraska, retired 2024-12-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 10 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.
