The Mississippi regulatory body has granted xAI a permit to develop a power plant in Southaven, Mississippi. This facility will consist of 41 natural gas-burning turbines.
The primary objective of the power plant is to supply energy to nearby data centers, which are increasingly reliant on stable and efficient power sources.
Despite the approval, there are ongoing concerns regarding the environmental impact of the facility, particularly related to emissions from natural gas combustion.
