La advertencia sale del Ministerio para la Transición Ecológica y el Reto Demográfico, que ha redactado un proyecto de real decreto sobre Centros de Datos en el que obliga a los Data Centers que quieran instalarse en España a usar electricidad renovable: al menos el 80% de su demanda, cada hora, deberá ser generada en parques construidos ex profeso. Lo que quiere el Ministerio es evitar que la demanda eléctrica de los centros de datos que vienen (que se estima va a ser formidable) impacte en el precio de mercado. En paÃses como Irlanda, PaÃses Bajos o Estados Unidos, el crecimiento desordenado de CDs -alerta- "ha provocado fuertes incrementos del precio de la electricidad; en EEUU se auguran subidas del 70% hasta 2030".
