With massive AI centers being constructed, power in the grid is already being taxed beyond capacity.
I think the next coming boom is big Tech finally realizing - promoting new Nuclear Power plants.
It's the only way this all pencils out.

I'm not a fan of Ev's obviously.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
