Australian datacentres' electricity consumption forecast to rise significantly

As Australia navigates its future in artificial intelligence, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese faces pressure from conservative state leaders regarding the development of datacentres. The Australian Energy Market Operator recently released its annual report on electricity supply and demand, revealing that datacentres currently consume approximately 3% of electricity supplied through the national grid. This figure is expected to surge to around 13% by 2035.
