Africa: Kenya Leads East Africa's Energy Consumption, Renewables: [Capital FM] Nairobi -- Kenya has topped the East African Community (EAC) in energy consumption and renewable energy generation, according to the latest Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority's (EPRA) Energy and Petroleum Statistics Report. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TNr393 #Kenya #RenewableEnergy #EnergyConsumption #EastAfrica #SustainableDevelopment
The Economic Impact and Energy Demands of Data Centre Alley for AI Growth
Near Washington DC's Dulles Airport lies 'data centre alley,' the world's largest concentration of data centres powering artificial intelligence (AI) services. These facilities consume vast amounts of electricity, with Loudoun County using about 4.9 gigawatts—more than Denmark's entire consumption. ... [More info]
Heads up, tech fam: that slick AI model you're using might be powered by something a bit less glamorous than pure code – think fracked gas and leveled landscapes in Texas. The article even hints at 'beating China' as a driver. Is the environmental cost of the AI race worth it? What's your ethical compass saying?

"Globally we see that hydropower is by far the largest modern renewable source. However, we also see wind and solar power both growing rapidly."
The global energy consumption is ~30,000 TWh per year, of which ~30% is from renewables.

Characterizing the Latency and Power Regimes of
Open #Text-to-Video Models
Recent advances in text-to-video (#T2V) generation have enabled the creation of high-fidelity, temporally coherent clips from natural language prompts. ... In this paper, we present a systematic study of the latency and energy consumption of state-of-the-art open-source T2V models.
