Elon Musk talks about how important electrical power production is for AI He underlines that later this year, the world might reach a point in which it will produce more AI chips than it can power, with the exception of China, which still produces enormous quantities of power.

ELON: "WE'LL HAVE MORE AI CHIPS THAN POWER TO RUN THEM" "The limiting factor for AI deployment is fundamentally electrical power. It's energy. We're seeing the rate of AI chip production increase exponentially, but the rate of electricity being brought online is 5% a year, max. It's clear that we're very soon, maybe even later this year, we'll be producing more chips than we can turn on." Source: Elon Musk

Elon Musk explains how data centers in Space could help the US compete with China in AI “Given that Chinese AI companies are doing as well as they are with a relatively small amount of compute, it seems that if they had a lot of compute, there’s a good chance they would be the leaders. The constraints on AI are essentially electricity and AI chips. China is very strong in digital AI, and it has far more electricity than the United States. In fact, China already has more electricity than the United States, Europe and India combined. The US government can prevent US companies from using Chinese models, but it can’t stop the rest of the world from using them. That won’t stop China from becoming the leader in AI. Digital intelligence comes down to how much AI compute, how many chips and how much electricity you have. The current constraint is electricity outside China. In China, the constraint is chips. China is also closer than most people realize to solving the lithography problem, which would enable it to make AI chips in very large volumes. Once we address the power constraint with AI data centers in space, the constraint will once again be chips outside China.”

Elon Musk reveals the real limiting factor for AI is not chips anymore, it’s electricity AI chip production is growing exponentially, but global electricity supply is only increasing 3–4% per year. We’re reaching the point where we produce more chips than we can actually turn on Power is the ultimate bottleneck in 2026. Data centers now face up to 7-year waits for grid connections, leaving many GPUs sitting idle Energy is the new oil of the AI race

Elon Musk: The fundamental limitation on AI is going to be electricity generation. “A few years ago I made a very obvious prediction which is that the limitation on AI will be chips, and it's still chips today. Then, it will be electrical equipment because you need to take power that might be at 300,000 volts, all the way down to 400 volts for the computer. So you need step-down transformers and a lot of them and a lot of cabling and wiring and fuses, it's a lot of transformers, essentially. And the electrical transformer industry is not used to big changes in demand. And then as we solve the transformer shortage, there will be the fundamental electricity generation shortage. We're getting there soon. My guess is people going to start hitting challenges with power generation maybe by middle of next year, end of next year. The question is how many power plants are getting built and how fast can you build a power plant?” CNBC Interview with David Faber, May 20, 2025

CNN: He claimed that China builds a lot of wind turbines and manufactures them for others, but refuses to use it itself, barely uses wind power. In fact, China is the world leader in the use of wind power. It is building additional wind power in China far faster than the pace at which the U.S. Is building in the United States itself. So the idea that China is just, you know, foisting this terrible source of energy on other countries while refusing to use it is a reversal of reality.

🇨🇳🇺🇸 ELON: CHINA'S SOLAR SURGE IS HALF OF THE U.S. POWER "China's production capacity for solar is 1500GW/year. They're deploying over 1000GW/year of solar. For a continuous solar load, you divide that by roughly 4 or 5. That's around 250GW of steady state power paired with batteries. That's half of the average power usage in the U.S. China can provide steady state power, and batteries can do half of the U.S. electricity output per year just for solar. Solar is by far the biggest source of energy." Source: Elon Musk, WEF

ELON MUSK: The Sun produces an enormous amount of energy every second. Even taking a tiny slice of that energy would be thousands of times more than all the power humans generate on Earth today. It shows how small our current energy use is compared to what exists in space.

Pravin Sawhney (Pravin Sawhney): This is the first time in the multipolar world that a great power is directly involved with a regional power. See, in the case of Ukraine, Russia is a great power. It is fighting NATO. It is not fighting Ukraine. You see here, it is a regional power, Iran, pitted against a great power. But this shows that warfare is much more than capabilities. Warfare is about political will. Warfare is about right appreciation—finding the right center of gravity of war.

ELON: CHINA CAN MAKE ENOUGH SOLAR PANELS TO POWER THE U.S. IN 18 MONTHS “China has the ability to produce solar panels with a steady-state output roughly two-thirds that of the entire U.S. economy from all sources. Which means that just with solar alone, China can, in 18 months, produce enough solar panels to power all the electricity of the United States.” Source: The All-In Podcast

Elon Musk has pushed for solar power, suggesting the entire United States could be powered by it if we just put the effort in. With AI, those with the most power will lead the race - energy is everything. If we want to compete with China, we need more solar.

China's renewable expansion receives endless Western applause. Its coal expansion, however, gets far less attention. At the start of 2026, China had 1,207 operating coal-fired power stations. In 2025 alone, it added 78 GW of coal capacity, the most in a decade, and began building another 83 GW, with a record 161 GW of projects either proposed or revived. China consumed more than 4.9 billion tons of coal during 2025 -- which is 56% of the global total. One country burned more coal than the rest of the world combined -- and green activists applaud it. China is building wind and solar, yes, but it is not gambling its industrial economy on intermittent power. AI is the next industrial age, but it requires colossal quantities of dependable electricity. China is securing this mainly via coal, gas and nuclear. Meanwhile, Net Zero governments are closing reliable power stations, raising energy costs and driving industry east. Nations that continue sacrificing power on the altar of Net Zero will not lead the AI revolution. They will watch the future being built elsewhere.

📁 Donald Trump says the AI race is no longer about models, it is about energy. He claims the US is far ahead of China because it allowed major AI companies to build their own power plants. According to Trump, AI factories will require more than double the country’s current energy output, and the grid cannot handle it. His solution was simple let companies generate their own power, using oil, gas, or even coal, with approvals accelerated in weeks. The core message is clear. The AI superpower will not be the one with the best algorithms, but the one that can power them.

JUST IN: MARA CEO Fred Thiel says AI pays more than Bitcoin mining. “Today, power is the thing, which is why ourselves and many of our peers have pivoted. Because you get a lot more money per electron if you're doing it for AI than for Bitcoin mining.” “We sit on an asset called land and power, which I can convert to AI, which gives me a much higher return.” Thiel says MARA will not shut down immediately: “We can mine Bitcoin up until the electrons have to be redirected to the data center.” "It starts getting pretty expensive to mine Bitcoin when the alternative use of energy is AI.”
