AI chip manufacturing derails climate progress in East Asia

A new report has identified a spike in the #electricity consumption rates of artificial intelligence (#AI) chip manufacturing by 350% since 2023.

The research paper, published by #Greenpeace East Asia, notes that East #Asia bears the brunt of the #ClimateImpact of AI chip manufacturing. Asian countries like #Taiwan and South #Korea are leading hubs for #semiconductor manufacturing but soaring electricity demand is denting #ClimateChange targets.

Semiconductor manufacturing plants in the region are turning to #FossilFuels to power their operation. The combined global #emissions from AI chip manufacturing in Asia Pacific, particularly South East Asia, could cause the region to miss out on its environmental #sustainability targets.

A huge wastewater treatment plant serving Duluth and surrounding communities has installed a new system to generate electricity from the gasses captured during the sewage treatment process, part of a growing trend to harness renewable energy from waste. mprnews.org/story/2025/04/19/d

The boat's domestic batteries are aging and need a bit of relief once the sun sets. Solar panels don't work by starlight. 🌞

The freezer has a couple of bottles of ice, to keep things chilled overnight, when the fridge dial gets adjusted from 2 to ½. One ice bottle moves to the fridge at night.

About once a week there's a forgotten thawing bottle of ice in the fridge all day instead of refreezing in the freezer.

Sorry, I feel like swearing on Easter.

G*damn Pacific Gas & Electric Co.!

They are running a big waste of money advertising campaign with "happy customers" praising PG&E for lower electricity costs.

A small temporary decrease after years of eye watering rate hikes, and even that is offset by a steeper rise in gas prices.

Obviously, this is totally not a huge for profit utility company teeing off a Trump "I did that, I'm the greatest" PR blurb....

Kenya boosts electricity access from 37% to 79% between 2013 and 2023.

Access has more than doubled in ten years, with urban areas reaching 100% coverage and nine million rural residents gaining connections.

One in five Kenyan households now uses off-grid solar systems, and renewable sources including geothermal, hydro, wind, and solar generate 90% of Kenya's electricity, positioning the nation to achieve universal access by 2030.
