TLDR
Estimates for the US AI data center buildout range from $2.8 trillion by 2030 to $10.3 trillion by 2032, Forbes reports. Construction firm Clayco estimates that half the cost of a typical 40-megawatt facility goes to GPU chips and other IT equipment. Forbes also cites Atrium’s estimate that developers have raised at least $1.3 trillion in debt, while access to power and skilled labor remains a bottleneck.
