AI may feel intangible, but its footprint is not. Data centres already consume more electricity than most countries. I’m calling on every major AI company to measure & publicly disclose the full footprint of its systems & to commit to power every data centre with renewable energy by 2030.

The renewable energy company Panthalassa says it has a solution to the proliferation of AI data centers, which consume massive amounts of energy and are the cause of increased carbon pollution: sea-based data centers, powered by wave energy. David David Pogue examines what Panthalassa's alternative to land-based data centers may mean.

ARK: SPACEX IS NO LONGER A ROCKET COMPANY After the largest IPO in history, the pitch to investors was about AI, not rockets: - SpaceX now tells investors more than 90% of its future market is AI, not space, after acquiring Elon Musk's xAI, its Grok models, and two of the most powerful data centers on Earth - The strategy is vertical integration: own the launch, the data centers, and the AI, with compute already rented to customers like Anthropic, Google, and Reflection AI - ARK estimates that at scale, sub $100 per kilogram launch costs make orbital data centers 25% cheaper to build than on the ground, in constant sunlight with nearly free energy

🚨WATCH: The push for green energy is running head first into the push for data centers. Spotsylvania County, Virginia is home to the largest solar panel development east of the Rockies. But despite its large 6,300+ acre footprint, it doesn’t provide enough power for one large data center complex in Loudoun County. Loudoun County has more than 200 data centers, and Virginia has more than 600 data centers. More data centers are on the way.

Malaysia has restricted new data centre investments not linked to AI for the past two years due to high electricity and water usage. Short-term energy needs can still be met, but potential strain on the national grid and electricity tariffs must be considered, said PM Anwar Ibrahim. This comes in response to a US statistic showing that data centres consume around 4% of national electricity and millions of litres of water for server cooling.

$CIFR CEO Tyler Page says the company may generate its own power on-site to move faster on AI data center demand. Hyperscalers need power faster and Cipher may be able to “tap the pipeline” instead of waiting years on the grid.

Since this individual isn't from Monroe, NJ, the moderator attempts to dismiss his right to speak. The reality is, AI data centers consume more electricity than 25,000 households and use 50,000 gallons of water every day. This impacts us all. #DemsUnited

AI data centers are projected to use more energy than the country of Japan. Trump’s solution is beautiful: Force AI companies to build their own power. Meanwhile, Elon applies to launch one *million* satellites to put AI data centers in space.

I still own $IREN because I think the market is underestimating both the $NVDA alignment and how hard its power footprint is to replicate. If the company can turn ~5 GW of secured power into Nvidia-aligned AI cloud capacity then the market may start valuing the 10x gap between its power base and near-term AI cloud needs.

Due to AI and Data centres there’s an increased demand.” > Infrastructure and Logistics: “This feels like a sunrise industry for next 10 yrs.” > Security (Defence & Cybersecurity): “Every nation is becoming so much dependent on data, so if someone attacks on data centres, our entire system can come to a standstill.” > Emerging Technology: “AI or Electronic vehicles, payment gateways, or data centres or the new technologies will do well.” - Vijay Kedia. June 2026. Discl: Not a recommendation Cc- Ronit Pereira
