⚡️North America's electricity demand hits a record high! The NERC report points out that the rapid development of cryptocurrency mining and AI data centers is driving a surge in electricity consumption. Taking Texas as an example, the annual growth rate of electricity demand during the summer peak is expected to reach 4.6% by the summer of 2029. The electricity usage for crypto mining fluctuates with the market, while AI data centers consume more power due to increased processing demands. Texas has taken measures to address this, such as implementing energy response programs and the passage of HB 3390. Do you think these measures are sufficient?
