~$125B per year would be 2-3% of all domestic investment. It's similar in scale to the GDP of a small middle income country.

If the electric grid — particularly the interconnection queue — is already the bottleneck to data center deployment, is something on this scale even close to possible? If it's a rationalized policy framework (big if!), I would guess there's some major permitting reform announcement coming soon.

One possibility would be just to build their own power plants colocated with the datacenters and not interconnect at all.

I like how you think this is possible.

It is, but at what cost?
