Next limit copper.

"The U.S. has enough copper to meet surging demand from AI data centers. But securing that supply depends on a robust, all-of-the-above strategy."

A conventional data center might use between 5,000 to 15,000 tons of copper. In contrast, hyperscale AI data centers, such as those built to house Nvidia’s HGX systems, can use up to 50,000 tons of copper per facility.

The U.S. has enough copper to meet surging demand from AI data centers. But securing that supply depends on a robust, all-of-the-above strategy.

America is doubling down on artificial intelligence (AI), with ambitions of global leadership playing out in multi-billion-dollar investments like The Stargate Project. But powering the AI era is about more than just silicon chips and server farms. The AI boom is redefining the future of American infrastructure. From hyperscale cloud clusters to edge computing and generative AI, the demand for data processing power is growing exponentially, and so is the need for the materials that support it. Copper, in particular, is critical to this transformation.
