America’s power grids need more of everything.
For decades, electric generation has simply kept pace with the nation’s economic growth. That’s set to change as cloud computing giants ramp up construction of data centers to meet demand for online services like artificial intelligence leader OpenAI’s ChatGPT. In other words, electric generation must now grow faster than the economy. Utility company AEP anticipates robust demand growth, particularly in states like Indiana, where it projects as much as a 60% increase in commercial electricity demand in coming years, mostly from data centers, like the $11 billion project Amazon is erecting in New Carlisle, the largest capital project in state history.

I hope it ends it. It’s a scam.
I believe in the Nobel laureate, who says it’s a scam, not some bureaucrat or some uninformed politician. All it is is a cradle to grave control scam.
1st.
There is no “Global Green Transition” in anything but your imaginations. It’s a massive boondoggle. Transitioning off petroleum is not going to happen until there is a substitute that packs the same energy punch in the same transportable package. This fairy tale about electric cars is a childish fantasy at odds with the realities of modern, global logistics. The only party that’s benefitting from any of it is the CCP….who are not held to the same standards but feed them all the parts and components.
Hope he will destroy the scam.
