Powering the Future of AI: Navigating the Trade-offs for Europe's Energy Transition and Net-Zero Goals

A comprehensive study modeling 21 AI growth scenarios across Europe reveals that artificial intelligence infrastructure could demand 73-723 TWh of additional electricity by 2050, potentially causing cumulative emissions overshoots of 67-181 MtCO2 between 2030-2050. The research highlights critical risks to EU net-zero targets in intermediate years unless energy policies adapt to accommodate hyperscale data center expansion.
