Data centers have become a convenient scapegoat for rising power costs and decades of underinvestment in America’s energy infrastructure. But are they creating the problem—or exposing a problem that was already there?
In this episode of Nine Nines, Mike Sarraille and Kirk Offel examine the White House’s voluntary ratepayer-protection pledge, growing community opposition, New York’s reported one-year moratorium on large data center projects, and xAI’s use of behind-the-meter natural-gas generation.
They also explore the role nuclear power and small modular reactors could play in America’s energy future, the impact of regulation on the AI race with China, and the planned nationwide anti-data-center protests bringing opposition from across the political spectrum.
