Speed-to-Power for Sustainable Data Centers: The Role of PCC

Speed-to-Power for Sustainable Data Centers: Advanced Carbon Capture to Unlock On-Site Power Without the Carbon Footprint

About the White Paper

The rapid rise of artificial intelligence is reshaping the data center industry. Today, the biggest constraint is no longer land, fiber, or computing hardware – it is access to reliable power. As grid expansion struggles to keep pace with demand, operators are increasingly turning to on-site natural gas generation to accelerate deployment. The challenge is reducing the resulting Scope 1 emissions while meeting net-zero commitments.

 

This white paper explores how Post-Combustion Carbon Capture (PCC) enables lower-carbon, behind-the-meter power by capturing CO₂ directly from on-site generation without compromising speed, reliability, or flexibility.

 

It also explains how Atoco’s nano-engineered reticular materials overcome many of the limitations of conventional PCC technologies through high CO₂ selectivity, low-temperature regeneration, modular deployment, and compatibility with low-concentration flue gas streams, making carbon capture more energy-efficient, scalable, and economically viable.

In this white paper, you will find:

• Why power has become the biggest constraint for AI-driven data center growth

• How on-site natural gas power generation enables faster, more reliable data center deployment

• How Post-Combustion Carbon Capture (PCC) reduces emissions from on-site power generation

• A deep dive into Atoco’s reticular-material-based PCC technology, including its low-energy and modular design

• A comparison of Atoco’s PCC technology against conventional carbon capture solutions, highlighting its performance and cost advantages
