Globally, energy use ranged between 240-340 TWh in 2022, excluding network activity (260-360 TWh) and cryptocurrency (100-150 TWh).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite significant improvements in efficiency, AI is driving a new wave of energy demand. The 2024 U.S. Data Center Energy Report estimates data center consumption could reach <strong>325-580 TWh (6.7%-12% of U.S. electricity use) by 2028<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-challenge-of-measuring-energy-use\">The Challenge of Measuring Energy Use<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Estimates of data center energy usage vary significantly. A review of 258 studies from 2007 to 2021 found that only two research groups\u2014Masanet and Borderstep\u2014produce credible global models:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2010: 193 TWh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2018: 205 TWh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2021: 350-500 TWh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2022: 240-340 TWh<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-servers-higher-power-draw\">More Servers, Higher Power Draw<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Server efficiency has improved, but energy consumption is increasing. Between 2007-2023, the average single-socket server drew <strong>118W<\/strong>, while dual-socket servers averaged <strong>365W<\/strong>. Recent data shows dual-socket servers now consuming <strong>600-750W<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The number of servers is also growing, from <strong>14 million in 2014 to 21 million in 2020<\/strong>, with <strong>AI-related servers accounting for 1.6 million<\/strong>.

Today, <strong>74% of servers are in hyperscale or colocation facilities<\/strong>.

A 2015 report predicted <strong>1,200 TWh of data center consumption by 2020<\/strong>, which did not materialize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, AI-related energy demand is real, rising from <strong>2 TWh in 2017 to 40 TWh in 2023<\/strong>. More efficient AI training models like DeepSeek-V3 are reducing costs, but overall consumption is still increasing. With <strong>servers and GPUs driving most of the rise in energy use<\/strong>, efficiency improvements must focus on hardware advancements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-road-ahead\">The Road Ahead<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With network and storage energy consumption stabilizing, the next efficiency gains must come from <strong>server and GPU optimizations<\/strong>.
