The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that data centers accounted for approximately 1.5% of global electricity consumption in 2024, a figure projected to more than double by 2030 due to AI's continued spread. A typical AI-focused data center consumes as much electricity as 100,000 households, with larger facilities under construction expected to consume 20 times more. Furthermore, server cooling necessitates large quantities of water. A study by the University of California, Riverside, and the University of Texas at Arlington suggests that a single chatbot conversation can indirectly require about h...
