There is a coal fired power plant in WV that uses water from a lake next to it for cooling. The water is warm and we went swimming when it was about 50 degrees out. Not sure about when it gets really cold in the winter.

 

takes yrs to get back into the aquifer from where it was drawn. unless they have a lake handy

 

Interesting how ai is gonna kill human life in all kinds of ways and all they are worried about is water use

 

Well, there are a lot of windmills out there so i guess they will have power as long as the wind blows.

 

Why dont they build these data centers somewhere with cooler weather? They create an enormous amount of heat yet they build them in the hottest parts of the country.... They are going up on evrry vacant piece of land out here in the southwest. Ive delivered to about a dozen data center jobsites just this year
