⚡️North American electricity demand hits a record high! The NERC report indicates 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 is expected to reach 4.6% by the summer peak of 2029. The electricity usage of crypto mining fluctuates with the market, while AI data centers require more electricity due to increased processing demands. Texas has taken measures to address this, such as implementing energy response programs and through HB 3390 legislation. Do you think these measures are sufficient?
