Jersey Shore Steel Co
BrownfieldMcElhattan, Clinton, Pennsylvania · NextEra Renewable Fuels, LLC
Jersey Shore Steel Co is a natural gas plant in McElhattan, Clinton, Pennsylvania. 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.
