The AI Boom Could Undermine the UK’s Decarbonization Plans.

The issue of decarbonization in the UK is growing due to the lack of energy needed to power data centers. This complicates the task of achieving the decarbonization target by 2030. According to Aurora Energy Research, the ever-increasing demand for electricity in these centers could disrupt plans in the clean energy sector.

Technology companies require stable energy supply, and gas power plants, due to their ability to provide electricity at any Time, are popular among them.

The government is actively developing the data center sector, but at the same time faces environmental challenges in the energy sector. To achieve these goals, it is necessary to expand the energy grid and use more renewable energy than is currently planned.

The Problem of Stable Energy Supply for Data Centers

In today's world, where data centers are becoming increasingly important, ensuring sustainable and environmentally friendly energy supply is an extremely important condition for achieving global carbon emission reduction goals.
