Podcasts about data centers

On today's show we are looking at the impact of data centres on the local economy where these are located. We are looking at the energy component, and the technology life cycle. You have no doubt heard the statement that “energy is the economy.” It is true that for every unit of GDP there is an equivalent unit of energy consumed somewhere in the world. But in this instance, energy is the lifeblood of the AI industry. In addition to the gold rush in AI, there is a recognition that the world is not generating enough electricity to satisfy the incremental demand from data centres. What caught my attention this past week was not the plethora of announcements of new power generating capacity. Although that is impressive, there is something even more important that we will explore. Let's take a look at the aggregate power generation announcements in just the past month alone. Several of the announcement have been in the range of 2GW. We need to put this in perspective. 2GW of power generation is enough to power 1.5M homes. This is enough to power a city like Phoenix or San Diego or San Antonio. So when we measure the power consumption of a large data centre complex, we are comparing it to the GDP of an entire city of 1.5M homes, or about 3m people. The primary driver of obsolescence is the relentless pace of Nvidia's (and other manufacturers') innovation cycle. New generations of AI chips are released frequently, every 12 to 18 months, bringing significant leaps in computational power, efficiency, and new features.Meta's studies, for example, have shown significant GPU failures during the training of large models like Llama 3, with an estimated annualized failure rate of around 9%, potentially reaching 27% over three years for H100 GPUs. These chips consume a lot of power (700W for H100s, over 1000W for future chips) and generate intense heat, putting immense stress on the hardware.------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

Lately, tech companies like Meta have been putting hundreds of billions toward building new data centers to power their AI ambitions. Some communities have been pushing back, however, arguing these facilities strain local resources. But demand for data centers isn't expected to slow down anytime soon. On the show today, Landon Marston, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Virginia Tech, explains what data centers actually are, why they require so much energy and water to operate, and how they can affect nearby communities. Plus, how can data centers become more sustainable?Later, reflections on Medicaid cuts and the power of journaling. And, a listener makes us smarter about “100-year floods.”Here's everything we talked about today:"Their Water Taps Ran Dry When Meta Built Next Door" from The New York Times"Coreweave stock pops after company announces $6 billion AI data center in Pennsylvania" from CNBC"Meta's Zuckerberg pledges hundreds of billions for AI data centers in superintelligence push" from Reuters "How A.I.

OpenAI and Oracle announced a major expansion, set to develop 4.5GW of additional data center capacity in a push to power surging AI demand. It positions Oracle as the reliable data center fallback as OpenAI and Softbank's relationship reportedly faces new hurdles. 

Texas is an oddity in the western electricity world: fastest growing load, ultra-low prices, crazy development of renewables. Texas consumes now more power than France, despite having only half the population. Prices are a factor 4 lower compared to 20 years ago. And 90% of additional load has been provided by Wind and Solar, despite the permanent attacks from the fossil fuel lobby.To make sense of the current situation in Texas, and also talk about the future, with unbelievable projections, full of AI and Datacentres, we have the pleasure of welcoming Arusha Sharma Frank.Arushi Sharma Frank is an energy policy expert with deep expertise in distributed energy resources (DERs) and virtual power plants (VPPs). She pioneered ERCOT frameworks for grid-integrated VPPs and the integration of batteries on the Grid, while at Tesla where she worked between 2020 and 2024. Arushi was a key architect of the Texas Public Utility Commission's Aggregated DER pilot, enhancing grid resilience post-Winter Storm Uri.  The Lone Star State is at the crossroads: will the additional load arrive? Are the renewables in danger? Can fossil fuels make a come-back, or are we seeing this wrongly, as the new model suggest that it is all about flexibility.Finally, the best source for information on renewable energy in Texas is Doug Lewin: www.douglewin.com

“We're creating a workforce that's ready to walk into the AI era—not just with technical knowledge, but with real-world readiness.” — Aaron Ritchie, SVP of Solutions, Uptime Crew In this episode of Technology Reseller News, Publisher Doug Green speaks with Aaron Ritchie, Senior Vice President of Solutions at Uptime Crew, a newly launched division of Smoothstack. The conversation dives deep into how Uptime Crew is addressing the labor shortfall that's emerging across critical sectors like data centers and semiconductor fabrication—industries that are essential to powering the AI-driven future. Founded in 2018, Smoothstack made its name delivering "Hire, Train, Deploy" (HTD) solutions for software engineering roles. Now, through Uptime Crew, the same model is being extended to high-tech, hands-on careers where demand is skyrocketing—from data center technicians to field engineers supporting chip manufacturing. Unlike traditional staffing firms, Uptime Crew hires full-time employees, pays for their immersive 7–10 week training, and deploys them into mission-critical environments. These candidates often come from unexpected backgrounds—military veterans, auto mechanics, Geek Squad technicians—and are reskilled to thrive in high-stakes, high-tech roles. With national security and economic independence driving massive investment in U.S.-based chip production and data centers (projected to grow from 3,000 to 12,000 facilities), the pressure to find qualified talent is intense. Ritchie explains how Uptime Crew's tailored approach accelerates time-to-productivity by 66% for clients, reduces attrition, and helps companies de-risk hiring amid exponential growth. In one case study, a rapidly expanding tech client saw immediate ROI by partnering with Uptime Crew to build a custom curriculum that mirrored its operational environment. On July 21st, Ritchie will publish a detailed blog outlining the economics and structure of the HTD model for workforce transformation. As he notes, “It's about unlocking potential—and giving both employers and employees the tools they need to succeed in a world being rebuilt by AI.” Learn more: https://uptimecrew.com

Governor Josh Shapiro says he wants to be sure Pennsylvania plays a key role in developing artificial intelligence, as well as providing the energy needed to support it. Speaking at an energy and A-I summit in Pittsburgh this week, Shapiro said the state's skilled workforce and natural gas reserves helped attract a $20 billion dollar investment in new data centers recently pledged by Amazon. A number of large-scale data center projects were announced across the state including a $15 billion project planned for the Carlisle area, a $6 billion project in the Lancaster area and a $5 billion project planned for York County. A nonprofit group that helps unemployed people stay in their homes is calling for state property reassessment laws to be updated. The lawsuit could affect property owners across the state. Another attempt is being made to eliminate local property taxes in Pennsylvania: This latest effort, in the form of an amendment to the state Constitution, is co-sponsored by state Senator Doug Mastriano of Franklin County. It would prohibit school districts from collecting property taxes beginning July first, 2029 and require the General Assembly to come up with another funding method for public schools. Some state lawmakers are taking another shot at legalizing adult cannabis use in Pennsylvania. Senators Daniel Laughlin and Sharif Street, as well as Representatives Emily Kinkead and Abby Major introduced bipartisan recreational cannabis bills just four days apart. Both bills incentivize minority, women and veteran-owned small businesses to open dispensaries across the state. Pennsylvania is one of 49 states sharing in a 20 million dollar settlement with drug maker Gilead Sciences. It stems from a lawsuit which accused Gilead of illegally providing financial and other incentives to medical personnel in exchange for promoting and prescribing its HIV medications. Danville-based Geisinger is eliminating nearly 100 Geisinger Health Plan positions as part of an "operational restructuring" amid financial challenges that include a $231 million operating loss last year. Four independent voters in Pennsylvania are asking the state Supreme Court to rule that the closed primary system violates the state constitution. They filed a lawsuit arguing that keeping independents out of primaries effectively denies them the right to vote in many districts where primaries determine the outcome. The 260th York State Fair kicks off Friday. and runs through the following weekend until Sunday, July 27th.

NGI markets editor Chris Newman sits down with Bracewell partners Bryan Clark and Jared Berg to discuss how companies can tap associated gas supply in the Permian Basin to fuel innovative co-located power arrangements and potentially receive higher pricing than at the oft-volatile West Texas benchmark, Waha. While data centers housing artificial intelligence grab headlines for their massive appetite for electricity, these projects represent a broader trend of associated gas assets being monetized for various in-basin power needs. Bigger projects may solve gas supply issues, but they bring operational complexity. Clark and Berg give examples of existing and proposed off-grid uses and the challenges they face.

We moeten het hebben over Prometheus en Hyperion. Dan denk je misschien aan personages uit Transformers, maar het zijn toch écht de nieuwe projecten van Meta. Het moederbedrijf van Facebook wil namelijk gigantische datacenters met die namen bouwen. Datacenters waar Meta volgens eigen zeggen honderden miljarden dollars aan wil uitgeven. Mark Zuckerberg heeft een missie en dat is dat zijn Meta de AI-kampioen wordt. Hij wil de achterstand op bedrijven als Microsoft ombuigen in een voorsprong. Deze aflevering kijken we of dat niet ten koste gaat van de financiën van het bedrijf. Betalen beleggers niet zijn nieuwe fiasco?Hebben we het ook over Nvidia. Het is topman Jensen Huang gelukt: hij heeft exportrestricties weggewerkt. Van de Trump-regering mag hij bepaalde chips nu tóch naar China exporteren. Leuk voor hem, maar het lijkt erop dat Trump hiermee de Chinezen machtiger maakt. Machtig mooi zijn ook de kwartaalcijfers van drie grote Amerikaanse banken. JP Morgan, Citigroup en Wells Fargo komen met goede cijfers, al zitten er wel wat schoonheidsfoutjes in. Ook moeten beleggers een flinke waarschuwing verwerken van JP Morgan-baas Jamie Dimon.

NVIDIA bekommt von der Trump-Administration grünes Licht und darf den H20 Chip in China verkaufen. Die Tech-Euphorie wird durch diese Meldung gespeist, zumal dadurch auch eine voranschreitende Stabilisierung im Handelskonflikt beider Nationen signalisiert wird. Laut Bloomberg soll Trump heute außerdem $70 Milliarden an Investitionen in die KI-Stromversorgung melden. Google plant über die nächsten zwei Jahre $25 Mrd. in die Stromversorgung für Data Center und KI-Infrastruktur zu investieren. Ansonsten setzt die Wall Street darauf, dass die für den 1. August angedrohte Ausweitung der Zölle gegenüber den wichtigsten Handelspartnern in dieser Form nicht kommen werden. Der TACO-Trade bleibt somit in Takt. Die vor dem Opening gemeldeten Ergebnisse aus dem Bankensektor halten die optimistische Stimmung ein und fallen überwiegend solide aus. BlackRock, JP Morgan, die Citigroup und Wells Fargo konnten die Ertragsziele jeweils schlagen. Da Wells Fargo die erwarteten Netto-Zinseinnahmen senkt, steht der Wert aber eicht unter Druck.

Laurent had the pleasure and privilege of sitting down with Markus Rauroma, CEO of Fortum, during the Eurelectric “Power Play” conference in Brussels this June.  Fortum, the Finnish energy company also active in Sweden and Poland, finds itself right on the front line when it comes to tensions with Russia—not exactly your average utility boardroom drama.   The conversation kicks off with Markus's recent election as President of Eurelectric, taking over from none other than Leo “the Great” Birnbaum, CEO of E.ON.We talk about the challenges Markus has faced so far, including how Fortum managed to steer through the stormy waters of the Ukraine war, and what's ahead for the industry. Spoiler: it's not all doom and gloom—there's strategy, resilience, and some surprisingly good teamwork. Markus rolls out Eurelectric's Manifesto centred on customers, security of supply and digitisation (AI).  Markus introduces his vice-presidential duo: Georgios Stassis (CEO of PPC) and Catherine MacGregor (CEO of Engie). According to him, it's a well-balanced trio—think energy world's version of the Avengers, but with spreadsheets and grid stability. He also gives kudos to Kristian Ruby, Secretary General of Eurelectric, and the Brussels team for their stellar behind-the-scenes work.The chat then shifts to the Baltics, one of the rare places in Europe where electricity demand is actually growing. Fortum's been ahead of the game there too: Markus reveals they now have over 1.3 GW of capacity lined up and ready to power new datacenters—because TikTok videos don't host themselves.  Of course, we couldn't ignore the constant cyber-attacks and sabotage attempts coming from Russia. Markus shares how Fortum has learned to deal with them—let's just say they don't flinch easily anymore.  And finally, a public mea culpa: Laurent repeatedly referred to Finland as part of Scandinavia. A common slip-up. For the record: Finland is next to Scandinavia, but it's not in it. The Finns are Nordic, not Scandinavian—but much like their neighbours to the west, they handled the mix-up with trademark cool. No sauna ban issued.  We thank Kristian Ruby and all the Eurelectric team for organising this recording and putting together such a great summit.

Doris Li Yeh, founder and CEO of Mirapath, Inc., discusses how she became an "accidental entrepreneur," what her company offers, who her customers are, why addressing cultural differences matters for achieving sustainable global growth, and why joining a mentor group has been one of the best business decisions she has made in her life.

Interview with Andre Liebenberg, Executive Director & CEO of Yellow Cake PLCOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/slow-supply-fast-demand-uraniums-new-investment-reality-7136Recording date: 7th July 2025Yellow Cake presents a compelling pure-play uranium investment opportunity positioned to capitalize on structural supply-demand imbalances in the global uranium market. The London-listed company holds approximately 22 million pounds of physical uranium stored primarily in Canada and France, providing direct exposure to uranium price appreciation without operational mining risks.The investment thesis centers on a fundamental supply deficit that is expected to persist for 3-5 years. Current global uranium production delivers approximately 165 million pounds annually against demand of 180 million pounds and rising, creating an immediate gap of 15 million pounds that is projected to widen as nuclear capacity expansion accelerates globally. China alone is constructing 26-28 reactors simultaneously, while technology companies increasingly turn to nuclear power for reliable, clean electricity to power data centers and artificial intelligence operations.Technology sector involvement represents a transformative catalyst for uranium demand. Amazon's $20 billion commitment to data center complexes alone represents half the market capitalization of the entire uranium sector, highlighting the scale of capital these companies are willing to deploy for energy security. As CEO Andre Liebenberg notes, "If a tech company had to put 20 billion dollars into the mining space, you could build a pretty big project for that." This suggests technology companies possess sufficient resources to directly address supply constraints through upstream investments if fuel security becomes a constraint to their operations.Supply-side constraints appear particularly acute given the limited number of producing jurisdictions. Five countries produce 90% of global uranium, with Kazakhstan accounting for approximately half of world production. Much of this flows to China and Russia, creating a "bifurcated market" where Western utilities face increasing competition for uranium supplies. As Liebenberg explains, "Kazakhstan, half their material goes to China. If you include Russia, it's probably closer to 2/3. Namibia, the two operating mines in Namibia are both owned by the Chinese that goes to China."Critical inventory depletion adds urgency to the supply situation. US utilities now hold approximately two years or less of uranium reserves against an 18-24 month fuel cycle, representing what Liebenberg characterizes as "the low point of their infantry." This follows nearly a decade of utilities contracting below consumption levels, a practice that cannot continue indefinitely. The eventual resumption of utility contracting represents a key catalyst for uranium price appreciation.Yellow Cake's strategic positioning provides multiple competitive advantages. The company's agreement with Kazatomprom allows $100 million annual uranium acquisitions at spot prices through 2027, providing assured access to supply in an increasingly thin market. As Liebenberg observes, "With the spot market today, you saw Sprott raise $200 million and the spot market popped $7 without them spending a penny. It's a very thin and liquid market. So $100 million volume will move the price."The company's track record demonstrates strategy effectiveness. Yellow Cake raised $200 million at IPO when uranium traded at $21 per pound and has grown to over $1.5 billion in market capitalization with uranium at $76 per pound. Liebenberg expresses confidence in continued appreciation: "I'm still of the belief that we could see a doubling in the uranium price. We're sort of partway through that journey."Government policy support for nuclear expansion, including the World Bank's decision to resume nuclear project funding and support from 14 major banks for tripling nuclear capacity, creates favorable regulatory tailwinds. Small modular reactor development adds another demand catalyst, with commercial operation possible by the end of the decade.Yellow Cake PLC offers investors direct uranium exposure through a transparent, risk-controlled business model positioned to benefit from structural supply-demand imbalances and technology sector-driven demand growth over the next 3-5 years.View Yellow Cake's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/yellow-cake-plcSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
