The Autor doesn't mention googles announcement from a few years ago to go renewable 24/7.
So, what's the value of this 'analysis'?
More holistic would have been to mention this, also compute following the sun, data center energy values (forgot the term for this), storage calculation for the needed amount.
In my opinion there is nothing easier than making a data center green and DCs already ha e a huge CO2 savings aspect.
It's so much better to do banking business online than driving to a bank.
I'm annoyed by mention DC becoming green. It wastes energy for the real CO2 sources.
