On average, a ChatGPT query needs nearly 10 times as much electricity to process as a Google search. In that difference lies a coming sea change in how the US, Europe, and the world at large will consume power — and how much that will cost. For years, data centers displayed a remarkably stable appetite for power, even as their workloads mounted. Now, as the pace of efficiency gains in electricity use slows and the AI revolution gathers steam, Goldman Sachs Research estimates that data center p...

Reducing power consumption in data centers with energy efficient solutions is essential. Find out how we can make data centers green!
A traditional Google search uses about 0.3 Wh while a query using ChatGPT — the chatbot developed by OpenAI — requires about 2.9 Wh, according to EPRI’s “ Powering Intelligence: Analyzing Artificial Intelligence and Data Center Energy Consumption” report. EPRI’s study examines four scenarios of potential data center electricity consumption growth, with varying estimates of public uptake of AI and data center energy efficiency gains. Under the scenarios, U.S. data center power consump...

Many components affect data center power consumption. Increase energy efficiency in the data center with variable-speed fans, liquid cooling and SSDs.
Google is expanding our use of demand response technology to temporarily reduce power consumption at our data centers to help local grids as needed.
Surge in power demand following two flat decades The commercialization of artificial intelligence (AI) and associated data center expansion is bringing rapid growth to previously flat U.S.
With the average cost of downtime amounting to thousands of dollars per minute, uninterrupted data center power is crucial.
An expected doubling in power consumption by the world’s data centers during the next few years is expected to potentially impede the expansion of AI.
