Those data centers would soon be somewhere else due to... economics. And even if not, wouldn't be significant.
Maybe if you start heating your homes by burning car tires in your gardens. But otherwise, no. You are already so far behind the curve that economics really don't allow CO2 emission increases on a global significant level.
I am talking about Austria. Its mostly reusable ones made of fabric, or really sturdy plastic/wofen plastic. If you need a oneway one it's paper. We anyway had to pay for the shoppingbags as long as I can remember.
Thanks for the answer. I was really surprised how little people complained when the shop ones stopped existing. Seems like induced demand. Back then I kept a few, because they are so handy. Well, never used one.
It will take some time but I will answer with sources. Can you post the source used in the map i have never been able to find anything that came close.
I always use a factor of 1200 as approximation e.g. 1GW produses 1.2 TWh per year but thats very very rough.
It's a few hours behind and they have obviously problems with behind the meter production. Adfitionally, the values for CO2 emisdions are off (i.e. nuclear is calculated with 5g/kWh, this is 1/3 to 1/10 of the values you find in literature) But all in all, you can see the trends of production and im- export.
While this is true, Austria has, for the first time ever, built more than 1GW of PV in 2022 and more than 2GW of PV in 2023. As a result 98%+ of electricity production have been renewable in April and this also holds true for Mai so far. All in all, good news.
Ok, bask in your american exceptionalism if you please.
