"AI" is in the title. It's to power their data centers.

I get that and scanned the article. they are currently, and have been, working on "AI" for a bit, but strategically they aren't positioned to provide a service offering right now. Even if they are going all in and they got regulatory love, it would make way more sense to go after an energy source/provider that could provide it on a faster timeframe. they'll get their energy in what? 7-10 years?

So they can power all the AI data centers.

In terms of $ per unit of energy, would shutting down Meta give best bang for buck?

Power prices would presumably fall.
