Data centers need to run 24/7, so you aren’t able to meet the needs with just solar. Additionally Solar is very seasonal (more power during the summer).
Not saying there aren’t ways to making it work, but one natural gas plant vs a mixture of systems is probably cheaper and easier. Especially since the US is currently built around natural gas power.
