"In the United States, nearly 5,000 data centers are either under construction or in planning stages, driven by growing demands for artificial intelligence computing power. By 2030, these facilities will require approximately 100 gigawatts of new energy capacity. Servers within these centers are replaced every 2 to 5 years, and by 2030, discarded equipment is expected to generate up to 13 million tons of waste annually."
