The costs associated with constructing natural gas power plants have seen a staggering increase of nearly 66% over the past two years, nearly doubling their original prices. This dramatic rise is largely driven by the soaring electricity consumption of data centers, which has intensified the demand for reliable energy sources. In addition to the cost hike, the time required to complete these projects has also extended by 23%, highlighting the growing challenges in meeting the energy needs of an increasingly digital world. As data centers continue to proliferate, the energy sector faces pressing pressures to adapt and evolve in response to this unprecedented demand.
