Why data center gas power plants have higher emissions
Data centers are increasingly using simple-cycle gas turbines, which are less efficient and produce more emissions than standard grid-connected power plants.
Data centers are increasingly deploying simple-cycle gas turbines for rapid power access, which are significantly less efficient than grid-standard combined-cycle plants. This leads to higher greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy produced. Future digital infrastructure transparency should focus on the specific generation technology used rather than just PUE metrics.
