The report was written by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. It predicts that by 2028, data centers could use 74 to 132 gigawatts (GW) of electricity annually, accounting for between 6.7% and 12% of the total electricity consumption in the U.S. The range of this figure is partly dependent on the supply of, and demand for, artificial intelligence (AI) chips (GPUs).
