BrownfieldWashingtonville, Montour, Pennsylvania · TalenEnergy Montour LLC
TalenEnergy Montour is a coal plant in Washingtonville, Montour, Pennsylvania, retired 2019-02-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 17 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.
