Um relatório da Global Data prevê que a China vai ultrapassar os Estados Unidos na corrida dos centros de dados. Segundo os especialistas, a energia vai tornar-se o novo “ouro digital”.
As tech giants rush to build infrastructure, some residents who live near data centers say a constant low-frequency vibration is ruining their health and homes.
The department cited national security concerns, saying Elon Musk’s company had played a crucial role in the Iran war. It also argued it has the authority to stop environmental lawsuits brought by citizens.

As data centers sprout across Georgia, the state’s utility providers are building new power lines to meet the demand for electricity. We speak with residents in Fayetteville, about 25 miles south of Atlanta, who say the new lines will run through their backyards and make it impossible to resell their homes at their current value.
As SpaceX gears up to start launching orbital data center spacecraft as soon as next year, astronomers warn those satellites could cause serious interference with their observations.
The AI boom is ushering in a new era for energy storage. As data center buildout accelerates, batteries are evolving from short-duration backup tools into larger, more flexible systems that can help bring facilities online faster and manage complex power needs. In the US in particular, a growing pipeline of projects is emerging, with batteries increasingly paired with on-site generation or used to smooth demand and unlock faster connections to the grid. So how are data centers changing the energy storage market, and what role could these systems play in the power grid of the future? On today’s show, Tom Rowlands-Rees is joined by, Caitilín McManus, a technology and innovation associate at BloombergNEF, to discuss her recently released note “Data Centers’ Energy Storage Ramp Up: Project List Grows.”
A United Nations University report says AI data center growth carries environmental costs beyond carbon emissions, raising new questions about power demand, water use, land impact, and vendor disclosure.
A Los Angeles-based startup has raised $5 million to fund an in-orbit computing demonstration next year, ahead of plans to deploy more than 100,000 orbital data centers to meet surging demand for AI infrastructure.
The carmaker will follow Tesla in making components for large batteries used by electric utilities, data centers and other businesses to handle fluctuations in power supply and demand.
