Energy use per person versus GDP per capita makes it relatively clear that increasing the kilowatt hour per person increases GDP. 

It just really makes you think about the fact that everything really is downstream from energy. Energy, having energy means that you can do more work, you can make more food you can support more of your citizens and your fellow humans. It’s just the reality. 

Just really makes me think about how we need to produce more energy, when you think about how there’s a revival going on with nuclear reactors coming back online in the United States because AI data centers are driving electricity demand

China's electric grid smashed all time high in load by surpassing 1.5TW on 16th. July has seen historical highs in peak load.

While solar is also hitting new highs, we likely will see some thermal generation growth YoY just due to the unprecedented AC demand. https://t.co/uGNvgNFJc8

Are we sure that it's not the other way around? That increasing GDP leads to more energy demand, which leads to more energy production?

I mean if you have an abundance of unused energy couldn't you attract development nearby by offering people deals on it that they can't get anywhere else?
