Predicts 500 percent increase in consumption over a decade and suggests 800 kilovolt fix

John Pettigrew, the CEO of British utility National Grid, warned on Tuesday that datacenter power consumption is on track to grow 500 percent over the next decade.delivered to the Aurora Forum in Oxford, Pettigrew mentioned growing demand for energy to power datacenters, alongside increased adoption of electric cars and heat pumps.

He didn't answer the rhetorical question, but did suggest"One approach we think has potential is the construction of an ultra-high voltage onshore transmission network of up to 800 thousand volts." It would also create spare capacity that would"open up opportunities for economic growth that could otherwise be constrained by a transmission network that is essentially reaching capacity."
