BrownfieldManassas, Prince William, Virginia · City of Manassas - (VA)
VMEA 1 Credit Gen is a oil plant in Manassas, Prince William, Virginia, retired 2007-12-01. 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.
