What Is Behind-the-Meter Power?

Some data centers generate their own power on-site rather than drawing entirely from the grid — what "behind-the-meter" means and why it's growing.

Compute Atlas tracks 12 dedicated power-generation projects built specifically to power a data center behind the meter, with 3.0 GW operational and 10.3 GW more planned, contracted across 8 offtakers.

See the power generation hub for the full breakdown.
