      Rip apart the data centres infrastructure and turn them into massive-scale sodium battery storage systems and cover the facility in solar and wind turbines as a gen-bat system

      How many new datacentres are in Australia though? I didn’t think there were many new ones being built.

      Well yea, 100GW to one building is way easier then pulling 200kW at 30 different Coles shops in Vic and qld.

          Which means they will be running diesel generators as a “backup”.

          Tell that to your Dodge RAM driving mate who uses ChatGTP to make all His decisions for him every day. The reason diesel is so expensive is because of the Data Centres.
