state and federal leaders are quietly lining up 10,000-acre #serverfarms and brand new #gasplants in #appalachia so the rest of America can keep feeding the machine. In #tuckercounty, #wv, a #developer is pushing a gas plant to anchor the campus - potentially "among the largest in the world" --

Besides straining the #grid and increasing #energybills, data centre growth is also jeopardising the #energytransition. Firstly, by increasing our #powerdemand, and secondly, because we’re unable to reduce our reliance on #gas, as seen by an increase in proposed #gasplants across #Europe.

🌍 Do we really need all the planned new natural #gasplants to ensure our energy system’s reliability?

⚡Or can #renewables plus storage carry the #decarbonisation of power generation?

🎤 Nikos Mantzaris responds at the #FTEnergy by @financialtimes.com @kathimerini.gr on June 17, 2025.

But these projects remain in the early stages of dev and face significant hurdles:
- longer construction timelines
- turbine supply constraints
- & rising costs

Meanwhile, renewables and battery storage are already cheaper & faster to deploy than new #gasplants. So why keep betting on fossil fuels?

Chevron Joins Pact to Build Gas Plants for AI Data Centers (Bloomberg) -- Chevron Corp., investor Engine No. 1 and GE Vernova Inc. formed a partnership to develop natural gas-fired power plants next to data centers, aiming to tap into artificial intelligence’...

Rising electricity demand requires new gas plants? Not so fast. What’s the best way to handle rising US electricity demand? Contrary to what some large utilities and regulators think, it’s not building new fossil gas plants. In this episode, Eric Gimon and Michell...

#Utilities have alternative options to addressing rising #energy demand.
EI's Michelle Solomon and Eric Gimon join David Roberts' Votls to explain why building #gasplants is not the best solution available for addressing short or long-term demand growth.
