Потребление воды дата-центрами может удвоиться к 2030 году, заявил Сечин

The consumption of water by data centers is projected to double by the year 2030, according to a statement by Sechin. This significant increase highlights the growing demand for water resources driven by the expansion of digital infrastructure. As data centers require substantial amounts of water for cooling systems, their escalating numbers and capacity will place increasing pressure on water supplies. This trend underscores a critical environmental challenge associated with the digital age.

This matters because the doubling of water usage by data centers could strain local water resources and necessitate new strategies for sustainable water management in the face of rapid technological growth.
