100+ UK data centres can't get a National Grid connection until 2038. So they're building their own gas plant. Ed Miliband's net zero target remains on the government website. The exhaust plume doesn't read government websites.
The engineering reality is worse than the headlines suggest.

Race to Power

More than 100 UK data centres are planning to generate their own electricity using on-site gas plant. The Guardian framed it as politics. This piece covers the engineering.

Brussels in March passed the 2040 climate target — 90% net reduction versus 1990 levels. Brussels in April agreed to import $750 billion of American oil and gas by 2028. Both facts cannot be true. The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive was gutted in December under pressure from ExxonMobil, JPMorgan, and a US Ambassador who called it "economic suicide." Over 400 Inflation Reduction Act grants terminated. The Endangerment Finding dismantled. The US absent from COP30 in Brazil — the first time since 1995 no delegation went. https://twp.ai/9OWdYB calls it the most significant setback for US climate policy to date. The predatory financial machinery learned long ago: you don't repeal climate law. You make the trade terms worse than the law.
