👋 G’day everyone, Archie here.
We’ve got a lot to get into today, so let’s crack into it 🗞️.
We will create a legal obligation for the next generation of large-scale data centres to underwrite new power supply
🗣️ Why did he say that?
Data centres currently use about two percent of Australia's East Coast power grid, and by 2050 that could hit 10 percent.
Last week, the Prime Minister made a big promise about forcing data centres to build their own energy rather than drawing on the grid the rest of us rely on.
This week I took a dive into what this could look like and what it may mean for energy bills.

Thanks for catching up with me. I’d love to know your thoughts on the new style of videos we’ve been doing on the YouTube channel this week - just reply to this email 👋.
I’ll be back on Monday.
Cheers, Archie
