The 'phantom' data center phenomenon, where announced projects far exceed physical feasibility, is making it impossible to forecast AI's energy demand. Hyperscalers are expected to invest $800 billion in 2026 and over $1 trillion in 2027.

The gap between announced capacity and deliverable capacity is widening due to labor shortages and 'shotgun' utility pitches. 'We don't know which ones are real,' said Glenn Schwartz of Rapidan Energy Group. This makes reliable AI energy demand forecasting impossible until at least 2028. The global energy system is at a critical juncture as it struggles with these 'phantom' projects. How Will Markets React?
