Historically, the tech industry accounted for a mere 1% of the nation’s electricity consumption, but that figure is now witnessing a sharp increase fueled by advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Unlike the potentially inflated demand for renewable energy, this demand comes from tangible applications and demonstrates real economic value. The implications of this surge pose questions about whether the existing energy strategies can keep pace with these developments.
