Elon Musk’s xAI plans to power a new U.S. data center with a million AI GPUs, consuming up to 2 GW, equivalent to 1.9 million homes. To meet this demand, xAI is reportedly buying an overseas power plant and shipping it to the U.S. The current Colossus supercomputer in Memphis, with 200,000 Nvidia GPUs, already uses 300 MW. The new facility will require 1.4–1.96 GW, including overhead. Natural gas turbines are likely, as solar and nuclear options are less feasible. This move underscores the massive energy needs of advanced AI.
