This year is set to shatter the annual record for new gas power additions around the world, with projects in development expected to grow existing global gas capacity by nearly 50%, a report by Global Energy Monitor (GEM) found. The US is at the forefront of a global push for gas that is set to escalate over the next five years, after tripling its planned gas-fired capacity in 2025. Much of this new capacity will be devoted to the vast electricity needs of AI, with a third of the 252 gigawatts of gas power in development set to be situated on site at datacenters. sources: - journalism | The Guardian | https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/jan/29/gas-power-ai-climate | 2026-01-29 prev: 67749a4afde7679441e2b26dae99903a78ba07b5f57068caf84aa41ba114b3b0

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0090 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
