Powering Up: AI and the Future of Electricity
AI's Electricity Appetite: Global Demand to Surge 4% Annually by 2027!
Last updated:
The International Energy Agency (IEA) anticipates a 4% annual increase in global electricity demand, akin to adding Japan's entire consumption every year until 2027. This surge, driven by AI, industrial activities, air conditioning, and electric vehicles, underscores the rising energy challenge as data centers, specifically, are poised to consume a significant portion of national electricity—up to 12% in the U.S. by 2028. Could the efficiency breakthroughs of Chinese AI startup DeepSeek mitigate some of these energy needs, or will the increasing AI adoption merely offset these gains?
