AI Growth Requires Sustainable Energy Infrastructure Expansion Globally and in India
Artificial intelligence's rapid growth demands significant expansion and modernization of energy infrastructure globally and in India. Data centers powering AI consume vast electricity, with global demand expected to more than double by 2030. India is rapidly increasing its data-center capacity and computing resources to support AI ambitions, but faces challenges ensuring this growth is sustainable and does not strain energy, water, and natural resources. Integrated planning of energy, cooling, and grid resilience is essential to support AI's future development efficiently and sustainably.
