Most Power Sought for US Data Centers Will Never Materialize

Colin Henderson

 Summarize ​ By Gabriel Levin and Emily Forgash August 12, 2026 at 5:30 AM EDT More than two-thirds of the electricity sought for the artificial intelligence boom in the US isn’t likely to materialize due to “phantom” projects and long-shot pitches. That’s based on new projections from Wood Mackenzie, which sees US grid operators and utilities likely committing to about 28% of the 1,066 gigawatts requested for data center projects. A gigawatt is the equivalent generating capacity of a traditional nuclear reactor. While no one expects every proposed project to be built, the data reveals how inflated projections of future power demand complicate planning … Continue reading Most Power Sought for US Data Centers Will Never Materialize

Its pilots were hidden in a bunker tens … Continue reading Like the movies’: How Ukraine’s ground robots are changing rules of war
