# Greenidge Generation (Vulcan Infrastructure and Power) Dresden Facility

NYISO data center · https://askthegrid.com/assets/facilities/greenidge-generation-vulcan-infrastructure-and-power-dresden-facility

Vulcan Infrastructure and Power, formerly Greenidge Generation, runs a 104 MW natural gas power plant on Seneca Lake at 590 Plant Road in Dresden, New York, that sells capacity and energy into NYISO and powers 64 MW of behind-the-meter bitcoin mining data center capacity. The former coal plant returned to service on gas in 2017. A 60 MW load interconnection is approved, and NYSEG has proposed an interconnection agreement for an AI/HPC data center. A five-year state air permit signed in November 2025 requires a 44% emissions cut by 2030.
