Study: Data centers emit more CO2 than estimated

A study by Allianz Trade found data centers emit 315 million tons of CO2 in 2025, 57% higher than International Energy Agency estimates, driven by AI's growing energy demands. Emissions could more than double by 2030 without decarbonization, with the U.S. and China accounting for 70% of global data center emissions.
