The rapid expansion of AI infrastructure is hitting a critical bottleneck: power availability and grid capacity. Utilities may take 18 to 24 months just to confirm power capacity for new AI data centers, delaying projects significantly. Industry leaders warn that building a gigawatt-scale AI facility today could mean waiting until 2030 to get it operational. This shifts the competitive edge to companies like IREN that secured power and land early, highlighting that owning infrastructure may be as crucial as owning AI chips in the coming decade.
