Turbine
BrownfieldEl Paso, El Paso, Texas · El Paso Electric Co
Turbine is a natural gas plant in El Paso, El Paso, Texas. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 121 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.
