> It has said data centers are driving “unprecedented” demand. Unprecedented, sure, but not unpredictable. I live close to Tahoe and the data centers mentioned are ones not far from me. They keep popping up and it’s pretty obvious at this point that there has to be better planning for how they’ll get power for increased demand related to AI. Like what could it look like to force data centers to produce and store an equivalent amount of energy to their demand elsewhere in the grid to offset their impact?
