Eagle Mountain
BrownfieldFort Worth, Tarrant, Texas · Luminant Generation Company LLC
Eagle Mountain is a natural gas plant in Fort Worth, Tarrant, Texas, retired 2012-08-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 1,560 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.
