MORGAN STANLEY WARNS OF U.S. POWER SHORTAGE FOR DATA CENTERS BY 2028 Morgan Stanley says surging AI demand could create a power shortfall of up to 20% — about 13–44 GW — for U.S. data centers through 2028. Analysts led by Stephen Byrd called AI computing “the most important technological shift in modern history,” warning that power constraints could become a major bottleneck for growth. Possible fixes include natural gas turbines, fuel cells, and small nuclear deals, which together could add up to 40 GW of supply. The bank also noted Bitcoin miners repurposing sites for AI computing, with new models like “neocloud” partnerships and long-term powered-shell leases offering strong value potential.(*Walter Bloomberg)
