Savannah River's Biomass Steam Plant
BrownfieldAiken, South Carolina
Savannah River's Biomass Steam Plant is a former superfund site in Aiken, South Carolina. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 20 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.
