Edgewater
BrownfieldSheboygan, Sheboygan, Wisconsin · Wisconsin Power & Light Co
Edgewater is a coal plant in Sheboygan, Sheboygan, Wisconsin, retired 2018-09-01. Retired generation sites are among the most attractive datacenter redevelopment targets: the existing interconnection was sized for roughly 420 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.
