The US Army took away diesel generators from data centers

The boom in the construction of data centers in the United States provoked a shortage of electric power generators . According to Josh Snowhorn from Terremark , it can take a whole year to wait for an ordered 2 MW diesel generator. The management of other companies that install data centers is also worried about the lack of electricity generators.

By the way, in the discussion of this topic on the Slashdot website one of the commentators stated that the reason for the shortage of electric generators is a large order for these products from the American army. Well, a very plausible version.
