Solar's Triumph Shadowed by AI's Unrelenting Energy Demands
태양광 시대 개막, 그러나 AI 인프라가 화석연료 생명 연장
Why it matters
While solar power will become the world's dominant energy source by 2035 due to plummeting costs, AI data centers' 24/7 power requirements will paradoxically ensure fossil fuels remain economically viable through 2050. This trend underscores how technology companies' infrastructure decisions will ultimately wield greater influence over global energy markets and climate outcomes than renewable energy breakthroughs alone.
