An analysis by the Sierra Club estimates that the rapid expansion of data centers in the United States, driven by artificial intelligence demand, could raise power sector emissions to 2.1 billion metric tons of COâ‚‚ by 2030. That would represent a 42% increase from 2025 levels and could undo years of progress in reducing emissions. The projection is fueling discussions about potential regulatory measures, including moratoria on new data center construction in states such as Oklahoma and Louisiana. The Oklahoma data center moratorium market consequently shows a 21.5% probability of adoption by December 31, 2027.
