Fleet Data Centers seeks approval to build two private methane gas power plants near Reno to supply their data center campuses, potentially sidestepping Nevada's renewable energy mandates and raising concerns about increased greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Data Infrastructure.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Nevada’s data center founders face a regulatory turn allowing private gas plants that bypass clean energy laws. Accelerate energy sourcing plans to avoid becoming dependent on fossil fuel infrastructure that may soon face political backlash.
