Except they are not, because all of these turbines are "emergency" generators which are completely exempt from any environmental regulations, due to being designed well....for emergencies. But it looks like xAI found a loophole that says they can operate them 364 days a year and it's still legal, so no, they don't actually do any emissions control on them.
