Essex Junction 19
BrownfieldEssex Junction, Chittenden, Vermont · Green Mountain Power Corp
Essex Junction 19 is a oil plant in Essex Junction, Chittenden, Vermont, retired 2007-05-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 4 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.
