Faber Place
BrownfieldCharleston, Charleston, South Carolina · Dominion Energy South Carolina, Inc
Faber Place is a natural gas plant in Charleston, Charleston, South Carolina, retired 2008-01-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 12 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.
