Utilities & AI: seizing the opportunities, navigating the complexity
Artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly matters for Utilities because its development, through data collection and processing, relies on data centers (DCs)-hosted servers. AI adoption is likely to fuel substantial incremental power demand through to 2030, as new, more energy-intensive servers are being deployed.
