xAI powers Mississippi data center with eight turbines made from jet engines
Elon Musk's xAI is powering a data center in Mississippi with eight turbines converted from jet engines, Tom's Hardware reports, citing The New York Times. Each can produce up to 50 megawatts. State authorities issued permits for them, but the environmental group Southern Environmental Law Center has challenged those permits. It accuses the company of undercounting projected emissions and failing to guarantee that the turbines will meet emissions standards, including those for formaldehyde.
