Forget the Chip Shortage -- Anthropic's Real Constraint Is Electricity. Here's the Energy Stock That Wins.
GE Vernova is seeing unprecedented demand for its power equipment.
Overview
Investors are buzzing about memory chip shortages amid the rapid artificial intelligence (AI) data center build-out. But a harder constraint has emerged: Data centers cannot get enough power. As a result, electricity has become one of the biggest bottlenecks for hyperscalers today.
In Anthropic's policy paper, "Build AI in America," the company notes that training a single frontier AI model in the future could require gigawatts of power. By 2028, the U.S. AI sector could require 50 gigawatts (GW) of electricity.

Getting more energy online is no easy feat. Transmission line construction, substation approvals, and grid interconnections are lengthy bureaucratic processes, and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei doesn't want the cost of training and inference falling on ordinary Americans.
