Woodbine Landfill Plant
BrownfieldWoodbine, Cape May, New Jersey · Cape May County Municipal
Woodbine Landfill Plant is a natural gas plant in Woodbine, Cape May, New Jersey, retired 2023-03-01. 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.
