Description	Microsoft and Abu Dhabi-based G42 announced a proposed 1-gigawatt AI data center in the Olkaria area of Kenya's Rift Valley region, powered by geothermal energy. The project demands a massive electricity supply that Kenya's current power grid cannot sustain, with the initial 100-megawatt phase already straining the Olkaria geothermal output capacity. The Kenyan government has indicated that powering this facility would require shutting off half the country's electricity supply, leading to significant challenges and delays in the project.
