By 2028, data centers' annual energy use could reach between 74 and 132 gigawatts, or 6.7% to 12% of total U.S. electricity consumption, according to the Berkeley Lab report. The report included ranges that depended partly on the availability and demand for a type of AI chip known as GPUs.

(Oil Price) – The future of data centers is about to make a huge draw on the power grid. According to a DOE-backed report from Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, U.S. data center energy use could nearly triple by 2028, eating up as much as 12% of the country’s electricity. Why? Blame AI and its insatiable hunger for powerful chips and energy-guzzling cooling systems.  Currently, data centers are responsible for a modest 4% of U.S. power demand. But
