Last month, Cleanview broke the news that Amazon is planning to build a 7.65 GW natural gas power plant in West Texas to power a data center campus. In our latest report on Amazon’s power strategy, we identified seven more power plants linked to the company’s data centers.

Altogether, utilities and independent power producers are building 17.5 GW of new gas generation to serve Amazon’s growing power needs. That’s roughly 1.5 times as much power as New York City consumes at its peak in a given year.
