埃隆·马斯克旗下人工智能公司xAI已在密西西比州安装八台改装的通用电气航空燃气轮机，为其数据中心供电，此举正值公用事业电网普遍面临限制之际。
xAI Deploys Converted Jet Turbines in Mississippi as Environmental Challenge Emerges Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company xAI has installed eight converted General Electric jet engine turbines to power its data center in Mississippi amid widespread utility grid constraints.
这些燃气轮机由总部位于密苏里州的ProEnergy公司改装，每台可产生高达50兆瓦的电力。
Repurposed by Missouri-based ProEnergy, each turbine can generate up to 50 megawatts of electricity.
尽管在允许挥发性有机化合物更高排放限值的州级许可下运行，该装置仍引发法律反弹。
Although operating under state permits that allow higher limits for volatile organic compounds, the installation has triggered legal pushback.
南方环境法律中心已对密西西比州的监管批准提出挑战，指控xAI未能确保遵守甲醛等污染物的排放标准，且低估了预计排放量。
The Southern Environmental Law Center has challenged Mississippi's regulatory approval, alleging that xAI failed to ensure compliance with emissions standards for pollutants like formaldehyde and undercounted projected emissions.
这一争端凸显了快速扩张的人工智能基础设施面临的日益严重的电力短缺和环境审查。
The dispute underscores mounting power shortages and environmental scrutiny confronting rapid AI infrastructure expansion.
