Elon Musk’s Shifting Energy Vision: SpaceX Filing Reveals xAI’s Heavy Reliance on Natural Gas as Tesla’s Clean Energy Master Plan Takes a Backseat - Tekedia

A SpaceX filing says xAI is powering its AI expansion with dozens of natural gas turbines and plans to buy more.

The company is also using Tesla Megapacks and other Tesla assets to support data-center energy needs.

Instead of near-term terrestrial renewables, the filing points to space-based solar power as a future option.

The disclosure raises questions about how Musk’s companies are balancing AI’s growing power demand with Tesla’s decarbonization goals.
