Abstract

An analysis of how artificial intelligence can accelerate the clean energy transition while addressing its own growing carbon footprint through efficient computing and renewable-powered data centers.

Overview

The intersection of artificial intelligence and clean energy represents one of the most consequential technology convergences of our time.

AI Energy Consumption

The energy demands of modern AI systems are substantial and growing. Data centers now consume approximately 2% of global electricity, projected to double by 2030.

AI for Clean Energy

AI offers powerful tools for accelerating the clean energy transition. Machine learning models improve wind and solar forecasting accuracy.

Policy Implications

Policymakers should consider mandating carbon transparency for AI training and inference, incentivizing renewable-powered data centers.
