Exxon announced this week that it’s planning to build a power plant for data centers, reflecting just how much electricity tech companies expect they’ll need in the coming decade. According to one estimate, nearly half of new AI data centers might not have enough power by 2027.
Data center emissions have tripled since 2018. As more complex AI models like OpenAI’s Sora see broad release, those figures will likely go through the roof.
H eating and lighting buildings requires a vast amount of energy: 18% of all global energy consumption, according to the International Energy Agency.
