BrownfieldHarrisonburg, Harrisonburg City, Virginia · City of Harrisonburg - (VA)
Harrisonburg Power Plant is a natural gas plant in Harrisonburg, Harrisonburg City, Virginia, retired 2016-06-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 3 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.
