AI Data Centers: How Much Renewable Energy?

IEA: 0B will go to data centers, surpassing oil. Can solar, storage, and new microgrids deliver 24/7 carbon-free power for the AI boom?
Renewables are emerging as the default option for new AI campuses, but the share that is truly carbon-free around the clock will hinge on siting, storage, and market design. Annual REC matching is no longer sufficient for leading buyers; the bar is shifting toward hourly, 24/7 carbon-free energy matching initiatives. Yet diurnal and seasonal variability limits how much of a site’s load can be met by solar and batteries alone, especially in non-sunny regions or during prolonged weather events. Expect mixed portfolios: on-site renewables and batteries, off-site PPAs (solar and wind), emerging long-duration storage, and grid purchases backed by hourly certificates where available.

SoftBank Sells Nvidia Stake to Fund AI Infrastructure Bets

SoftBank Sells Nvidia Stake to Fund AI Infrastructure Bets
SoftBank has exited Nvidia and is redirecting billions into AI platforms and infrastructure, signaling where it believes the next phase of value will concentrate. SoftBank sold its remaining 32.1 million Nvidia shares in October for approximately $5.83 billion, and also disclosed a separate $9.17 billion sale of T-Mobile US shares as part of a broader reallocation into artificial intelligence. The proceeds are earmarked for a significant expansion of SoftBank’s AI portfolio, including a major investment in OpenAI and potential participation in “Stargate,” a next-generation AI data center initiative co-developed by OpenAI and Oracle. Despite exiting Nvidia’s equity, SoftBank retains about 90% ownership of Arm.

AI in India: Why Airtel–Perplexity and Jio–Gemini Offer Free Premium Access

Why Airtel–Perplexity and Jio–Gemini Offer Free Premium Access
A cascade of offers from OpenAI, Google, and Perplexity—amplified by Airtel and Reliance Jio—signals a deliberate push to convert India’s scale into durable AI usage, data, and future revenue.
