I don't think #UK #datacentres are going to be running on gas/oil cycle #turbines, much, soon, nor later. Even combined cycle would be optimistic.

#Gas packing plants, #pipelines, and #refineries, are all being blown up all over the place, except this far the USA, where the mad king is determined to burn as much as possible.

It isn't going to get better quickly.

If we need them, they need big #batteries, #wind turbines, #solar panels, and anything else to hand.

Elevated to locally critical fire weather conditions will persist across portions of the Southwest and Southern High Plains due to gusty winds and dry conditions. An early-season heatwave will challenge temperature records across the eastern U.S..
