From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Paul Homewood<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Big Green Grift, the Energiewende and all the other green energy scams are about to be slowly shuttled aside because we need massive amounts of new energy these schemes cannot deliver.<\/strong> Moreover, we can no longer afford the virtue signaling, power seeking and money-grabbing nonsense these ventures involve. Indeed, there\u2019s a big wreck about to happen at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence Boulevard and Net Zero Avenue. Future AI data center demand is forcing energy discussions to suddenly get very real.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google, of course, is already facing the fact the two streets it\u2019s simultaneously traveling are not parallel roads, but, rather, two routes that intersect and the company will be forced to stop and decide which direction it wants to go.<\/strong> Net Zero Avenue, taken to the end of the highway leads the end of Google\u2019s AI dreams, while Artificial Intelligence Boulevard promises huge rewards.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We wrote about this Google dilemma and which way the evil company will go <\/em>here<\/em><\/a>. The situation is also nicely summarized in a new report titled \u201cThe U.S. Needs a Bigger (Energy) Boat: Putting The Sheer Magnitude of Forecasted Energy Demand into Perspective<\/a>,\u201d from Pickering Energy Partners. \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It just doesn\u2019t get much more clear; renewables cannot begin to supply the energy needed for AI data centers<\/strong>. Only fossil fuels and nuclear can get the job done. It\u2019s that simple. AI is not something global elites are going to let slide by. They\u2019ve had a good run with the Big Green Grift but those days are going to gradually (maybe not so gradually) come to an end, as the demand for energy to power AI forces a reconsideration.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI may be the catalyst, but this article highlights a much wider issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As societies grow and develop, they need ever increasing amounts of energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mechanisation and automation has been the driver of increasing human wealth in the last couple of hundred years, and there is still plenty of potential to improve our lives further still as human effort is replaced by machines and computers. But they will need energy, that renewables cannot begin to provide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
