BrownfieldPearsall, Frio, Texas · South Texas Electric Coop, Inc
Pearsall is a natural gas plant in Pearsall, Frio, Texas, retired 2017-08-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 66 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.
