BrownfieldOxford, Warren, New Jersey · MN8 Energy LLC
WC Landfill Energy LLC is a natural gas plant in Oxford, Warren, New Jersey, retired 2016-12-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 2 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.
