US Data Centers Need $110B for 45 GW Power by 2030

New data quantifies the capital required to expand the power grid for the country's digital processing facilities. Moody's estimates that the American data center boom will require $110 billion in investment to add 45 GW of power capacity by 2030.
The analysis projects that power demand for these facilities will double before 2030. This surge in energy requirements could result in data centers consuming 10% of all US electricity by the end of the decade.
