Energy Secretary Urges Data Centers to Use Backup Power Amid Heat Wave

In response to a severe heat wave affecting the East Coast, Energy Secretary Chris Wright has instructed data centers in the mid-Atlantic region to rely on their backup generators instead of drawing from the public electricity grid. This measure aims to ensure that there is sufficient power available for residential air conditioning as temperatures soar above 100 degrees. The PJM electrical grid, which serves 13 states, has seen significant energy demand spikes due to the extensive use of data centers, particularly in Virginia. While this directive may alleviate grid strain, it raises concerns about increased pollution from backup generators, which often run on fossil fuels. Residents are advised to conserve energy during this critical period.

This decision affects over 1,000 American passengers, forcing the itinerary to change to include stops in Cairo and Crete instead. The CEO of Atlantis Events expressed concern over the implications of such discrimination, marking the first time in 36 years the company faced such a ban. Turkey's stance reflects a broader trend of increasing hostility towards the LGBTQ+ community under President Tayyip Erdogan's administration.
