Using fossil fuels to power data centers is bad for your lungs & wallets, especially if the fossil fuels are burned behind-the-meter with aeroderivative turbines (jet engines) & diesel generators. But developers can't wait for grid connections & modern turbines, so brace yourselves.
Data centres turn to aircraft engines to avoid grid connection delays
Supply chain shortages drive developers to use smaller and less efficient power sources to fuel AI power demand

Carbon capture is a ploy, a distraction, a nefarious deception by the fossil fools, no different than the tobacco industry telling consumers not to worry: they’ll put filters on their cigarettes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSZg...
