    Crusoe Energy | The U.S. EPA's New Methane Rule: A win-win for oil companies and the environment?

    The EPA’s new methane rule aims to achieve emissions reductions by routing natural gas away from wasteful traditional flares and toward more beneficial uses. By capturing otherwise flared gas and using it to power modular data centers, Crusoe’s Digital Flare Mitigation (DFM) technology is both reducing methane emissions and providing oil and gas companies with an effective, reliable and cost-free alternative to routine flaring.

    Crusoe Energy | An Energy-first Approach to AI and Digital Infrastructure

    AI is revolutionizing our capacity to address climate change—from assisting companies in emissions reduction to reshaping food systems to enhancing energy efficiency. But as the demand for AI and machine learning grows, so does the demand for energy to power these innovations. While some companies ignore their negative environmental impact or greenwash their efforts, new clean computing options are helping those that want to be part of the solution.
