Data centers drive huge power plant buildout in Ameren Missouri 20-year plan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ameren Missouri wants to significantly ramp up power plant construction to meet data center electricity needs, according to a 20-year plan released this week. The new plan significantly increases the company's reliance on natural gas plants while scaling back the percentage of energy produced by renewable sources like wind and solar. And in a change from previous plans, the company is no longer discussing a goal to reach net-zero carbon emissions. Monopoly utilities publish these plans, called I
A Missouri scientist explains how data center noise is different from regular noise pollution (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As large-scale data center proposals pop up around Missouri, one of the biggest concerns among residents is noise pollution. Across the country, people living near the largest data centers have complained about the sounds they emit, even taking their arguments to the courts with multiple lawsuits.

Scientists rescued 34 endangered humped tree snails from Guam ahead of Super Typhoon Bavi in July, and the group has now made its way to the St. Louis Zoo. As the typhoon was predicted to hit Guam, scientists from the University of Guam worked with the U.S. Marine Corps to gain access to a military base where one of the last known populations of the snails lives. After a long hike, the scientists b
How should Missouri communities vet data center proposals? A new guide suggests questions to ask (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When a massive, secretive data center project attempted to build in St. Charles last year, the experience was painful for the area, said state Representative Colin Wellenkamp, who represents St. Charles city. "It was a master class in what not to do if you want to approach a community," Wellenkamp said Tuesday. "It was very opaque. It was, hide the ball. I think the industry learned from that experience. My city, myself, my family, didn't like the lack of transparency." Now, he's unveiling a new
