Data center power consumption is a problem if it drives up consumers’ electricity bills, says Flex CEO Revathi Advaithi: “Now, the power situation is different because if you have a utility that is directing power to the data center, taking it away from consumers and hiking bills for consumers,...

@RevathiAdvaithi every hyperscaler announcement says new jobs, every local utility bill quietly says who is paying for them

إن استهلاك مراكز البيانات للطاقة يصبح قضية حساسة عندما يؤثر على فواتير الكهرباء للمستهلكين، كما أشارت رئيسة تنفيذية لشركة Flex. هذه القضية تسلط الضوء على أهمية إيجاد توازن بين احتياجات الطاقة المتزايدة لصناعة التكنولوجيا والعدالة الاجتماعية في توزيع الموارد. يمكن النظر إلى هذا من منظور استدامة بيئية، حيث أن تقليل استهلاك الطاقة في المراكز البيانات قد يساهم في جهود مكافحة تغير المناخ. رابط المصدر:

@RevathiAdvaithi if a utility can shift load off consumers to a data center on command that's a grid planning failure not a data center failure

Duh. Large commercial electricity fixed prices in ERCOT in 2019 before any incoming data centers: 3.5 cents per kWh all the way to the zone (excluding TDSP/delivery charges). After data center surge ramp up in April/May 2024: same fixed price terms -- 7.5 to 5.5 depending on term.

@RevathiAdvaithi Flex CEO saying a utility directing power to data centers and hiking consumer bills is a problem is the grid catching the AI tab, I'd rather see the rate hike than the quote.

Data centre electricity demand is projected to exceed the entire power consumption of the state. Already, data centres are adding an estimated €1.6 billion to Irish households’ electricity bills, while paying around half the rate charged to ordinary consumers.

🚨 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."

This is Amazon's new $11 billion AI data center campus in St. Joseph County, Indiana. It will draw 2.2 GW of electricity, the output of a large power plant, enough to supply 1 million homes. For years, the public was told energy had to be rationed. Use less. Dismantle reliable sources. Accept scarcity. All to save the planet. That story has now been abandoned. AI requires massive continuous electricity to power the data centers. And AI is now seen as the superior 'control system'. So energy is no longer a liability. It is a strategic necessity. Power will now come from wherever it can. Whatever works. Whatever scales. The climate narrative was tossed out the moment AI dominance became the priority. Power was to be rationed. Now it is required. Power was the problem. Now it is the solution.

Today, Trump hosted AI execs to ask them to "pledge" to cover the electricity costs of their data centers. One problem? It's smoke and mirrors. Consumers should understand that if he's serious, Trump would support my Power for the People Act to make these protections LAW.

"DePin is taking the $2.3 trillion digital infrastructure market and making it powered by individual users instead of Amazon, Google, Microsoft." "It's having consumers build and power the internet." "The final point is trustless so that you don't have any of these big monopoly concerns." "My home internet bill from Verizon is $128 per month, that same volume at a data center only costs them 50 cents."

"We will expand what is already the largest global Megapack power instillation in the world." "The instillation will provide enough backup power to power the city of Memphis, and more than sufficient energy to power to the town of Southaven, Mississippi where the data center resides!"

American lives in Virginia, ‘The Data Center capital of the world’ She shows 2 electric bills. Two years ago her bill was $302. Her bill today is $450 Her energy usage is the same, only a 9% increase in usage. The “energy service supply” charge skyrocketed. It went from a power generation, fuel and transmission charge in August 2024 of $190.11 to this year they're $336.68 I have researched and found that this is a direct results of data centers and it’s widespread in her area in Virginia A 2026 review of Dominion power company bills found a typical household bill up about 38% since 2022 because of the data center boom, energy grid updates and environmental mandates

We need to embrace innovation, but we have to do it in a way that doesn’t harm North Carolinians. Data centers should bring their own clean power and pay for their own energy, not leave families paying higher electricity bills because of data centers’ energy demands. I’m proud to have eliminated data center tax breaks for energy usage, and now we need to tackle the rest.

"I've seen the same polls that you're talking about... People associate data centers with 'my neighborhood is going to get worse.' In particular, 'my power bills are going to go up.'" Vance says the solution is to build nuclear and other power plants near data centers, insisting that the broader goal is getting American industry "to build again."
