The role storage plays in the AI data cycle

Artificial intelligence and generative AI are driving rapid increases in electricity consumption, with data centre forecasts over the next two years reaching as high as 160% growth. As a result, almost 40% of existing AI data centres will be operationally constrained by power availability by 2027, according to a forecast by research and consulting firm Gartner Inc.The growth of new hyperscale data centres to implement gen AI is creating power de…

Data centers powering AI could use more electricity than entire cities

Until about a year ago, no one paid much attention to data centers. Everyone used them, of course, but they didn’t think about them. Then, the AI rush began. It was followed by a rush for energy supply. One year in, and data centers are threatening the very energy transition on which so many governments have staked everything. Power utilities, regulators, and climate activists appear to be experiencing growing concern about the immediate outlook…
