Concerns about Musk Xai Supercomputer in Memphis
The most important concern of Thomas is that the institution goes over gas turbines.
According to Commercial complaintMemphis City Council The 13-acre land deal has been confirmed by CTC. Xai’s affiliate. The lands will be used by the company’s estimated $ 80 million “Colossus Water Processing Plant”.
In September 2024, 100,000 chip supercomputer colossus officially crossed online. The institution requires significant energy, including the institution of 300 megawatts of electricity reported on energy. The original estimates for the site were half of it. As a result, the light, gas and water (MLGW) of MLGW are built to meet the initial demand for 150 megawatts. At the same time, XAI uses temporary gas turbines so that the institution can meet its energy requirement. Earlier this year, the CTC property applied for the operational permit of 15 gas turbines in the Shelb region’s healthcare department.
Permission will allow 24/7 use of gas turbines, Commercial complaint Reports: The CTC applies for turbines and quotes the cause of MLGW, which cannot meet the needs of its institution. According to the CTC application, turbines have emissions that emissions are 11.61 tons per year (HAP) per year.
If the Shelbian Health Department will be approved, the gas turbine use will increase from 364 days to June 2025, 2025.
This is a problem for Thomas, who says that air pollution from the Xai object has significant health effects for the region, which has already suffered from other air quality areas.
“These turbines are, in fact, in the atmosphere in the atmosphere,” Tomas said. “In general, air quality, accessibility and network stability will be fulfilled.”
