There are some very easy to point to massively awful ones that XAi and Meta are building.

They build them in terrible locations, with lots of heat and little water, and then they bolt on diesel engines.

It doesn’t have to be like that. We’ve been building out solar powered data centres for decades, with closed loop cooling, and in sensible locations.

Bullshit. Where is there a solar powered data centre. It would need a base load I doubt solar could provide enough power.

Probably not solar alone, but there are a number of established green energy data centres in the world
