What are you talking about? This is literally the only mechanism to allow coal-fired plants to avoid sunsetting on schedule.

Who are the “relevant technical authorities”?

"DOE issued the emergency order without a request from the plant owner, transmission provider or grid operator"

Without getting in to the fact that none of those people operate datacenters, what does that mean to you? You think Trump and Co are doing this as a purely political move to irritate environmentalists?

Oh yes environmentalism is clearly why the data center owners themselves are running generators 24/7.

"All of the electricity consumed by Amazon’s operations, including its data centers, was matched with 100% renewable energy in 2023."

Please elaborate.
