Read NPGA’s newly-published analysis of propane’s role in low-emissions data center infrastructure in Powering the Digital Age. Learn how the rapid expansion of data centers is a defining challenge for the U.S. energy system. Data center facilities are no longer niche components of the digital economy but critical infrastructure underpinning commerce, communication, and national competitiveness. Their extraordinary growth trajectory is colliding with a power sector already strained by transmission bottlenecks, interconnection delays, and decarbonization initiatives. Propane merits serious consideration as part of the data center energy portfolio. Its attributes—portable storage, indefinite shelf life, nationwide delivery infrastructure, and significantly lower emissions than diesel—position propane as a fuel capable of bridging immediate reliability needs with longer-term sustainability goals.
