Artificial Intelligence -Revolution needs chips and programs ... and gas pipelines

Ultimately, strong enthusiasm for everything related to artificial intelligence extends to spreading in a sector of which the hard beginning was introduced 160 years ago, which is the pipelines. The natural gas production company, “E QT Corp”, announced this week the sudden acquisition of the “Iteretens Midstrim Corp” business, which specializes in pipelines, which were separated only six years ago. The “EQT Corp” has the acquisition, which amounts to $ 5.5 billion, as a type of trade union, synergy for hedging and reduction of costs, which is of interest if the gas prices fall below the fall of two million dollars in the UK thermal unit. However, there was an interesting addition to CEO, Toby Rice’s conversation at a telephone conference with analysts, related to something more linked to the first and twenty -century. Rice said that the growth in the electricity generation sector is another interesting dynamic we currently see in the market … and it is happening specifically in the southeastern market that the “Mountain Valley” pipeline Project (MVP) is served, and then contributes to the demand for electricity of the artificial intelligence sector, which will also provide this project. Also read: The growth of artificial intelligence promotes the demand for electricity and impedes the energy transition and the “Mountain Valley” pipeline project, which was very late, aims to transport it in the market and eventually put it through a decision by Congress. It is expected to start this line soon, which you will have 49% of the “E QT Corp” and adopt it. The spirit of the times and the increase in electricity demand, the tone of rice is filled with the spirit of the age currently prevailing in the stock market. The large metal tubes filled with flammable fuchs are not a clear component of artificial intelligence. The value of the “Envenia” business, which specializes in the Chips industry, which disadvantages its rocket increase, the scope of hard enthusiasm for artificial intelligence, is equivalent to about four times the market capital of the entire energy transport and storage sector in North America. But without electricity, all databases only become large pens. Not only that many of these centers are located in countries such as Virginia, which will be served by the “Mountain Valley” pipeline project, but that gas is also the largest source of sources for electricity generation in the United States. Electricity consumption expectations indicate a sudden increase in demand after years of stability. Data centers in different parts of the United States consumed an amount of electricity in 2022, equal to almost the total amount consumed by the Yahayu West Virginia states. Also read: “Invidia” exceeds Aramco and becomes the third largest valuable business in the world. In addition, the PJM, which serves a large group of states in the Atlantic, has doubled its expectations to grow in the region three times earlier this year, attributing to the multiplication and distribution of data centers. By 2027, this is expected to double the database capacity in the states covered by the BJM network, in addition to the southeastern markets – all targeted for pipeline gas – which means that the demand for electricity is increased. Consumption growth and price increase. The production of natural gas production in the United States is urgently needed. Electricity generation is the only local demand growth, which is decreasing under the pressure of increased production capabilities of renewable energy. The prevailing messages of “E QT Corp” are to reduce the cost of the unit, to the weakening of the gas prices. However, there is something related to the nature of that growth. For example, Texas recorded an incredible increase in electricity prices last summer, despite the continued expansion of the productive capabilities of renewable energy and batteries on its network, as well as term prices for next August over the past six months. This is due to the growth of electricity consumption, enormous growth to the extent that the effect of the increase in new generation energy cancels. If we assume that the artificial intelligence revolution is at its embryonic stage, we are about to see a noticeable increase in electricity demand in large parts of the United States, and the gas will play a role in meeting the question. ‘Data centers’ as the same with the noise of artificial intelligence itself, the details here cause some problems that disrupt the growth. In a recent report, Creditsights analysts raised the issue of “social impact” of data centers. Not only is it related to the giant computers who are held in the countryside, but there is also a matter of fairness. A facility business is planning ‘Dominion Energy’ to spend almost a billion dollars on a new electricity transport line in North Virginia -the region, also known as the “Data Center” track. Credit sites explain that the costs, as usual in infrastructure projects, will be borne by all local network clients. In other words, it may not be limited to spoiling your morning decoration due to the rise of a new giant building nearby, but you would rather help pay the price of the wires it needs with a higher monthly account (and residents already pay prices per kilowatt hour higher than consumers for commercial use). Dominion Energy has already cited opposition to the new line, as quoted by a local activist, saying that “the monopolist facility enterprise we pay for all turns in a special facility associated with the data centers, and should stop it.” Emissions, cost distribution and yield on the thorny topic associated with the distribution of costs and benefits of the old infrastructure provided the electricity network itself. For example, the city of Ludon in North Virginia receives tax revenue from data centers that are sufficient to cover all operating expenses for its local government. The costs here may not be as clear as the increase in the monthly electricity bill, but its returns are clear to the population. Of course, the industry can eventually follow a different path that is also the concerns associated with emissions due to electricity generation using gas, as it appears in the sale of Talene energy this month as a center of data centers in Pennsylvania to Amazon. The matter is not limited here to the fact that the location of the center is shared with an existing power station, which sings the need for a new network infrastructure, but that this station is core, which offers free electricity. The Mountain Valley Pipeline can provide an indirect method for E QT Corp to take advantage of the mutation of artificial intelligence. Do not exclude the obstacles that will form the old human intelligence.
