The rapid growth of AI and data centers is straining power grids and hindering the transition to clean energy. Texas' power grid is struggling to meet the rising demand from activities like crypto mining and AI data centers. Data centers are projected to double their power consumption by 2030, while AI's computational power is expected to double every 100 days. The construction and operation of data centers require significant electricity, and cooling alone can account for up to 40% of energy usage. The industry must prioritize sustainable power sources and regulate resource consumption to ensure a sustainable future. #AI #DataCenters #CleanEnergy...
