Description
Description | At least 15 coal-fired power plants across the United States have delayed their retirements to meet the increased electricity demand from artificial intelligence data centers. These delays are supported by the Trump administration's rollbacks of pollution regulations, allowing these plants to emit more pollutants while continuing operations. Notable plants include the Virginia Clover Power Station, Plant Bowen and Plant Scherer in Georgia, and the Victor J. Daniel Electric Generating Plant in Mississippi. The delays range from a few years to decades, with some plants receiving exemptions from pollution reduction requirements. |
