Carlls Corner
BrownfieldUpper Deerfield Twp, Cumberland, New Jersey · Calpine New Jersey Generation LLC
Carlls Corner is a natural gas plant in Upper Deerfield Twp, Cumberland, New Jersey, retired 2024-06-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 84 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.
