AI data centers are now the top power consumers in Texas, outpacing Bitcoin miners. ERCOT data shows 73% of 226 GW in large-load requests come from AI facilities. On-chain data reveals Bitcoin miners are shifting to AI infrastructure as GPU demand rises. With 432 GW in proposed generation, solar and batteries can’t meet AI’s 24/7 needs.
