Gas is poised to be one of two big winners in the rising competition to provide reliable, 24/7 power generation to datacentres in the US and around the world. The nature of the rapidly evolving field means gas will likely not be just a temporary solution to a more permanent future powered by nuclear or another aspirational fuel source. As the number and size of power-hungry AI-related datacentres continue to expand, questions related to how their electricity needs will be satisfied become increasingly important to all stakeholders.
