Lake Area Landfill Gas Recovery
BrownfieldSarona, Washburn, Wisconsin · Dairyland Power Coop
Lake Area Landfill Gas Recovery is a natural gas plant in Sarona, Washburn, Wisconsin. 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.
