Energy Sec. Wright: ‘AI Is Going To Be a Huge Driver of Electricity Growth,’ It Already Is

EXCERPT:

WRIGHT: “Oh, artificial intelligence is going to be a huge driver of electricity growth. It already is. So it‘s not just artificial intelligence. We‘re also going to see more reshoring of industry in this country of different kinds. But yeah, AI is certainly going to be the biggest driver of demand growth for U.S. electricity. And we need to stay ahead in the AI race. We can‘t afford to fall behind China because we stumble on energy.”
