When completed, the area will be 2.6X the island of Manhattan. To get 9GW of energy, you have to produce 16GW of energy, the balance goes into the environment, 7 #gigawatts of waste heat. This creates up to a 20 degree (F) increase in temps.
They're expecting a huge heat island there in Hansel Valley (Box Elder County Utah), affecting wind patterns. The #DataCenter will increase Utah's #greenhouse gas #emissions by 50%.

#Oracle is expanding its partnership with #BloomEnergy, contracting for 1.2 #gigawatts of capacity from the fuel cell maker. This comes days after Oracle received a warrant to purchase up to 3.53 million shares of Bloom at $113.28 each, a total investment of $400 million. The deal will help Oracle meet the energy demands of its #datacentres. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/13/oracle-expands-bloom-energy-deal-days-after-400-million-stock-warrant.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news

The country has become a huge new market for solar as super-cheap #Chinese solar panels #flood in. It imported 17 #gigawatts of solar panels in 2024, more than double the previous year, making it the world’s third-biggest importer, according to data from the climate think tank #Ember.

#Taxpayers #LetTheSunshineIn : U.S. #DOE grant expected to fund majority of $2.2 billion complex for #Qcells (division of #SouthKorean #Hanwha Group) to build a solar plant in #Georgia.
President Joe #Biden’s #InflationReductionAct, gives tax credits on #AmericanMade solar gear, plus allows manufacturers to earn #incentives for every unit of #polysilicon they refine in every wafer, cell and module they make in #USA.
A US Dept of #Energy spokesman said “The domestic demand for #solar modules in 2026 is expected to be around 50 #gigawatts. We’re expecting to produce about 40 gigawatts in 2026, So that means 80% of the (#solarpower) modules that we deploy in the United States in 2026 is expected to be domestic.”

The recent massive #solarflare is arriving and is depositing 'hemispheric power' measured in hundreds of #gigawatts. Is this going to have any effect on sea surface temperatures? 🌞

#pakistan plans to boost #coal-fired #electricity production to 10 #gigawatts - more than a 4x increase from current levels - with domestic coal. Its #naturalgas imports are expensive and the country is running very low on forex reserves needed to purchase it.
The country currently has a power generation capacity of ~44 GW, and this move will essentially maximise the #carbon footprint of its #energy mix, provided they can find financing for the new coal plants.
