The Deal of the Century Literally
So apparently Microsoft has teamed up with Brookfield Asset Management to throw around $10 billion into the renewable energy ring. Yeah $10 billion not that anyone has that kind of money laying around right? They're aiming to power their AI and data centers with clean energy like wind and solar as if my Zap o matic couldn't handle the load on its own. Oh well guess they need more juice for their 'fancy machines' or whatever.
Data Centers vs. Northern Virginia The Electric Boogaloo
Hold onto your hexdrinker folks. The 10.5 gigawatts of renewable energy they're planning to use is three times what all those data centers in Northern Virginia gobble up. Watch out VA Microsoft's going green and they're taking no prisoners! The battle for power supremacy has begun and I think it's pretty clear who the victor is going to be.
Electricity Demand Surging Like a Super Mega Death Rocket
Seems like the U.S. is in for a shock as electricity demand spikes with AI semiconductor manufacturing battery production and electric cars all vying for a piece of the power pie. Well I've always said more electricity means more explosions so I can't wait to see how this all pans out. Surging electricity demand huh? Just another Tuesday in the world of energy.
