Elon Musk’s AI venture, xAI, is set to integrate renewable energy into its operations with the development of a solar farm near its Colossus data center in Memphis, Tennessee. The 88-acre solar installation is projected to produce around 30 megawatts of power. This clean energy source will contribute approximately 10% of the electricity required to run the data center. The move underscores a broader industry trend toward environmentally conscious practices within the energy-intensive field of artificial intelligence.
