For a better sense of scale: it's about 2% of the average US electricity consumption, and about the same as the average electricity consumption of the Netherlands (18 million people)

For another sense of scale: A 500MW AI-centric datacenter could cost $10 billion or more to build. So 10GW is $200 billion!

No this is from just one partnership, my sense is that OpenAI alone wants more than that.

5% to 10% of US electricity going to AI in 10 years is consistent with the current valuations of AI companies.

Around 5% in the next 5 years for AI alone sounds pretty in-line with projections I've seen.
