> No wonder we still can’t get climate change under control

This is was historically a money issue, being green used to be wildly more expensive.

Now being green is cheaper, the limiting factor is how fast PV and batteries can be made or imported.

Recent reports of the sum of all US data centres currently in planning, has a power demand exceeding the (capacity-factor-adjusted!) global annual supply of new PV.

This would be less of a problem, but still a problem, if Trump wasn't trying to get in the way of anything green, or if the companies building data centres decided to also support factories to make more PV.

* Planned new demand: 300 GW; PV factory capacity ~ 600 GW nameplate, but the capacity factor is 14% so that's really 84 GW on average.
