The New York Legislature passed a one-year moratorium Thursday night on data center permits, the latest sign of pushback amid a nationwide rush to build the power-hungry facilities. New York would become the first state in the nation to enact such a freeze if Gov. Kathy Hochul signs the bill into law. But Hochul, who […]

RALEIGH, N.C.—The Ratepayer Protection Act, wending its way through the North Carolina legislature, conjoins two opposing ideas: rein in data centers and their power consumption but liberate Duke Energy from limits on fossil fuels. The first section of Senate Bill 730 would forbid data center developers from using eminent domain to seize land for their […]
Just over seven months from completing phase one of this mega-project, Chinese engineers have finished the build and switched on the world's first underwater data center (UDC) powered by offshore wind turbines. What's more, it doesn't need freshwater and cuts land use by more than 90% compared with above-ground centers.

For months, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro promised a plan to blunt fast-rising energy costs in the state by pushing power-hungry AI data centers to pay their own way. Now his office has formally released details on how he intends to turn BYOE—“bring your own energy”—into more than just a slogan. The question now is whether […]
GOOCHLAND, Va.—Deborah Blackburn leaned on her cane in a line to enter the Central High Cultural and Educational Complex, angst-ridden over a giant transmission line proposal for reasons that are common refrains here: It’s all to benefit data centers in Northern Virginia, and it will disrupt the rural character here outside Richmond. “We don’t want […]

예를 들어보자. 과거의 데이터센터 수요는 기업의 비용 절감이나 클라우드 전환 과정에서 발생하는 민간의 ROI 중심 의사결정에 의존했다. 그러나 이제는 데이터 주권과 지정학적 리스크 관리, 그리고 계산 능력 그 자체를 인프라로 인식하는 정책적·전략적 가치가 수요를 견인한다. 이러한 변화는 데이터센터의 경제적 가치를 재정의하는 전환점이다. 즉, 데이터센터가 단지 서버를 수용하는 공간에 머무는 것이 아니라, 20년 이상의 ‘장기 현금흐름이 기대되는 핵심 인프라 자산’으로 재평가받고 있는 것이다. 자본시장의 관점에서 데이터센터가 지속 가능한 자산으로 평가받기 위한 본질은 단순히 전력을 얼마나 확보했느냐에 있지 않다. 오히려 확보된 전력을 얼마나 장기간 안정적인 디지털 수요로 전환할 수 있는 ‘구조적 환경’을…
DURHAM, N.C.—Duke University plans to build a small data center at Central Campus, potentially the first of several similar-size projects, which has raised questions among some faculty about whether the energy- and water-intensive endeavors could derail the institution’s climate commitments. The 1.5-megawatt data center could eventually expand to 3 megawatts, a university spokesperson said. It […]
In 2025, data centers consumed 485 TWh of electricity. Thirty percent of that, more than the entire annual power consumption of Sweden, went to cooling. Scientists have developed a 3D-printed copper-plate cooling tech that can slash this figure by over 90%!
