Description
The U.S. is entering a period of rapid electricity demand growth, driven by power consumptive technologies such as AI, coupled with data center expansion and economic development, including new domestic manufacturing. Electricity demand is expected to grow 15-20% in the next decade and double by 2050. The DOE Office of Policy recently released the blog post – Clean Energy Resources to Meet Data Center Electricity Demand, highlighting DOE resources designed to assist data center developers in meeting electricity demands through clean energy solutions. DOE resources available to data centers include loans, grants, FOAs, tax credits, and technical assistance.
