As expected. Water and power for nothing.
A landmark AI development billed as delivering jobs and prosperity has misrepresented its plans to channel a nuclear reactor’s worth of power to a site in rural Scotland, a Guardian investigation has found.
AI (or rather the sophisticated use of statistics and logic on large data sets) has many good uses - but the majority of the use is trivial and uneccesary

Energy poverty - Reliable energy is essential for survival
* "Colonial powers built energy systems designed to extract resources and profits for distant corporations and governments, not to serve local communities. As a result, local communities pay high costs for inadequate power. "
"As climate disasters intensify, and reliable energy becomes ever more essential for survival, recognising the colonial roots of global energy systems is key. A critical site for recognition, as argued by Puerto Rican energy advocate Juan Rosario is ownership: “the most important thing in this energy revolution is who owns it and who rules”."
"Energy justice – grounded in ownership, self‑determination, and equality — must be more nuanced. We need to ask: Who gets to own the energy systems? Who makes the decisions? Who gets the money? Right now, big corporations and governments control energy. Real energy justice means communities run their own power systems and keep the benefits for themselves. Thus, energy justice cannot focus solely on technical fixes. It must also confront the structures of power that shape who benefits from energy systems and who is left vulnerable."

"As parts of Australia may become “unliveable” under extreme heat, improving housing standards is a must. Access to clean energy should also expand beyond the reach of wealth and homeowners.' .>>

Anyone here using one of those little diesel heaters to warm rooms in a house? Like: https://www.amazon.co.uk/HCALORY-Adapter-Control-Controller-Portable/dp/B0D97HHV75
I guess adequate (safe!) exhaust arrangements are the key difficulty.
Even without using the electric central heating our electricity bill really spikes in the winter from the sporadic small electric fan heater use, and I'm a bit tired of living so cold and damp.
Not sure if burning diesel to save on electricity fits for the #SolarPunk hashtag or maybe something else, like #EnergyPoverty. Our UK normal waking hours electricity costs something like 33p/kwh (0.38€, 0.44$US, 0.67$AU) — I'm surprised there isn't more uproar about it really. (I also have the solar panels I git cheap and hopes for a small solar project for our "office" power, but that needs a fair bit of spend on battery and charge/iverter stuff.)

‘#EnergyPoverty’ hits US residents more in the South and Southwest, study finds
"Federal financial assistance is allocated based on rules written in the 1980s and disproportionately provides aid to Northern states, which historically have had high heating bills.
In the decades since, populations have shifted, temperatures have risen, and energy needs have evolved. Researchers propose a solution that recognizes the cost of #AirConditioning in a warming South."
