Chris Bowen has rocks in his head if he thinks data centres can run on intermittent power while he blocks gas-powered ones. That said, Australians must come first for reliable, cheap electricity. These data centres should not be prioritised. This government has done enough damage and needs to be... show more

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.

Why are we forced to pay for data centres? Ireland to be the dumping group of these big tech companies data centres & their algorithms. We should be able to know what's going on in them. Instead, this government is allowing them to use up massive amounts of water & electricity.

🚨 JUST IN: JD Vance helps to clarify President Trump's stance on data centers, highlighting his desire for data centers to put power BACK into the grid "I think probably 99% of the backlash to data centers has come in areas where building a data center means higher utility and higher electricity for the people on the ground." "If you build a data center, you should be putting power back into the grid, not taking it out, and if that is happening, I don't think the data centers are that controversial."

BBC News, "The Green Party is calling on the government to slam the brakes, on the building of new AI data centres in England, because of the amount of energy and water they use" "The Green Party leader Zack Polanski says stricter environmental standards should be introduced" Zack Polanksi, "We need to slam the brakes on these energy guzzling, water guzzling data centres" "At a time when 3/4 of the country are in drought it's outrageous that these are being considered critical infrastructure" "To most people critical infrastructure is hospitals, water, electricity, it doesn't mean AI" Important to note that Australia's solution is making AI data centres provide green renewable energy as a precondition for AI data centres. The UK should be doing the same.

Chris Bowen wants to run Australia on sunshine, wind and batteries. That plan can barely keep the lights on for households, let alone power a fleet of energy-hungry data centres. And his claim that a nuclear power station takes 20 years? More spin. The global average construction time for a nuclear reactor is 6–8 years.

DAVID SACKS: “President Trump has been really clear that consumers should not have to pay higher rates for electricity because of data centers … He said let the AI companies become power companies. Let them stand up their own power generation … with these new data centers.”

🔴 People in Developed nations are fighting against Data Centres and here we are being told a Data Centre that is supposed to be run by Adani is the greatest investment our country has ever received..? When will we stop falling for this BS ..?

“We’re investing in renewables to put downward pressure on prices. They want a nuclear fantasy that will drive prices up.” - Chris Bowen, slamming nuclear energy. Australia holds the world’s largest uranium resources, roughly 28–33% of global reserves and has just finalised a deal to supply uranium to India for its nuclear power needs. The only fantasy here is Bowen claiming his intermittent renewables are delivering cheaper, more reliable power for Australians.

Chris Bowen – Australia has ZERO nuclear fallback! Renewables alone can't cut it. Honeywell CEO Vimal Kapur at Davos: data centres, steel, cement & heavy industry run on ENERGY DENSITY. Not headlines or green goals, PHYSICS. Solar won't smelt steel. Wind won't make concrete. Coal, gas & nuclear are needed for demand. The world's going digital, but still powered by heavy industry. Time to face reality. ⚡

#ExpressAdda | “I honestly think the idea of putting data centres in space is ridiculous,” said OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. Responding to a question on whether the world has enough computing power for countries like India to become AI-first societies, Altman said, “Not yet,” adding that the scale of demand far exceeds current global capacity. “If you multiply that out… we have no way to deliver a trillion GPUs anytime soon. We’re not going to do that, to be clear.” He was in conversation with The Indian Express’ Anant Goenka. Radico Khaitan 360 ONE Wealth

Neil Oliver dissects Larry Fink's admission that "intermittent power like wind and solar" cannot reliably power all the new data centres required by "the world of data harvesting". "Our data is the new oil, the new gold, and its storage must not be entrusted to the renewables, so-called, that the rest of us are expected to settle for." "They de-industrialised Europe in pursuit of the wind and solar future... Britons pay more for energy than just about anyone else on Earth." "And now, Larry Fink... says the world of data—the world we are all expecting or expected to inhabit—needs the kind of power you only get from oil and gas, and the like." Credit: Neil Oliver

Musk suggested that his life could be at risk when he said that he needs to beef up his security. This is because “people who are taking advantage of the government” are going to get “upset” when he and Trump start slashing costs. “If I had full power to take action, I would balance the budget immediately,” Musk said, adding that the government urgently needs to stop spending more than it brings in. “A lot of people who are taking advantage of the government are going to be upset about that, and I’d probably need a lot of security. But it’s got to be done. And if it’s not done, we’ll just go bankrupt.”

“It's time all Australians stood up for Ben Robert Smith and all his brothers in arms and say 'No More’. This is a national disgrace and he needs to be let out, taken home to his wife and children and given the right to live out his life in peace and freedom like he fought for everyone else. These politicians and bureaucrats that fuel these situations are the ones that should be incarcerated.” -A message from Paul Funnell (Former Wagga city councillor)
