ExxonMobil Beaumont Refinery
BrownfieldBeaumont, Jefferson, Texas · ExxonMobil Oil Corp
ExxonMobil Beaumont Refinery is a natural gas plant in Beaumont, Jefferson, Texas, retired 2005-08-01. 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.
