- Cow manure could be the next data center fuel
Lent Hill Dairy Farm in New York uses cow manure and food waste to produce renewable natural gas (RNG) via anaerobic digesters, which powers a cryptomine and could supply energy for data centers. Ag-Grid Energy, a Pennsylvania-based company, claims this approach could address rising data center energy demands while recycling waste. Critics argue RNG may not fully replace fossil fuels but instead serve as a transitional solution.
