Why artificial intelligence and clean energy need each other.
MIT Tech Review
Artificial intelligence and clean energy are intertwined in a geopolitical competition that will shape the future of both industries. With AI potentially driving a 15-20% increase in U.S. total energy demand over the next decade, these facilities are pushing the electricity system to expand faster than existing physical and political structures can accommodate. The unique energy profile of AI data centers—demanding round-the-clock power, in a concentrated footprint—presents an opportunity to scale next-generation clean energy technologies in the United States. Meeting this demand requires innovative power solutions like advanced nuclear and geothermal technologies that offer high power density and reliable 24/7 capacity, as well as new infrastructure such as high-temperature superconductors that can efficiently deliver concentrated, 24/7 power to these energy-intensive hubs. Leveraging AI’s demand profile to catalyze clean energy innovation will allow the U.S. to maintain its leadership in both AI and energy production—two critical drivers of 21st-century economic growth. Currently though, the clean-energy scoreboard tilts toward China, which has commissioned 27 nuclear plants over the last decade to the U.S.'s two, while the U.S. continues to prioritize development of natural gas power generation. In a competition for AI supremacy that hinges on scaling power density, building a new fleet of natural gas plants, while our primary competitor builds a fleet of the most power-dense energy resources available is like bringing a knife to a gunfight.
