Amazon's New West Texas Data Center to Be Powered by Potentially Largest Single Greenhouse Gas Producer in US

Source Summary

Amazon is investing in a new natural gas power plant in Pecos County, Texas to power its West Texas data center. The plant, featuring 35 natural gas turbines with a capacity of 7.65 gigawatts, could be one of the largest single producers of greenhouse gases in the US. Initially, the plant will not be connected to the state's power grid and will primarily deliver electricity directly to the data center.
