  • You’re assuming that the world is covered in server racks. I don’t expect anything like that, even with significant increases in datacenter construction.

    Let’s assume 1kw per person. 10 billion people at peak population some time hence. So about 150 billion m2 to provide 1kw per person 24/7. The earth’s surface area is 510.1 trillion m², of which about 1/3 is land. So we’re probably just fine on renewables.
