Westside Landfill Gas Recovery
BrownfieldAledo, Parker, Texas · WM Renewable Energy LLC
Westside Landfill Gas Recovery is a natural gas plant in Aledo, Parker, Texas, retired 2017-10-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 2 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.
