Solar farms have made it much cheaper to expand electricity production, but the point of this article is still true: efficiency gains in data centers have a compounding effect.
- bequanna 3y agoI don't think this is the kind of generation they are talking about. Solar is intermittent and you would need expensive energy storage to even things out. I guess unless you can shift your compute usage to match production. Maybe that would work? But then your compute utilization is pry suboptimal. Why own hardware that is only in use 8-12hrs a day?
