Data center server energy use grows across the commercial building stock

Data center server energy use grows across the commercial building stock

In the Annual Energy Outlook 2026 (AEO2026), our long-term outlook, we project electricity consumed by data center servers will increase across the commercial building stock, increasing more in standalone data centers than in all other data center rooms combined. By 2050, server consumption alone reaches between 446 billion kilowatthours (BkWh) and 818 billion BkWh. The highest end of the range reflects faster growth in server power draw and installed stock in our High Electricity Demand case. Standalone data centers are represented in the other buildings category, where we project servers will consume 581 BkWh of electricity in 2050 in our High Electricity Demand case. Across all cases, servers alone accounted for an estimated 7% of commercial sector electricity consumption in 2025. Data center server electricity use grows to 22%–33% of commercial building electricity use by 2050 across our cases.

U.S. industrial natural gas consumption expected to hit records in 2026 and 2027

U.S. industrial natural gas consumption expected to hit records in 2026 and 2027

We forecast U.S. industrial natural gas consumption will climb to record highs through 2027 in our latest Short-Term Energy Outlook. Industrial consumption averaged a record 23.6 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in 2025, 1% more than the record 23.4 Bcf/d reached in 2023. In our forecast, consumption gradually increases further in 2026 and in 2027 as we expect the natural gas-weighted manufacturing index to also rise slightly over this period.

Electricity generation from solar could exceed coal in ERCOT for the first time in 2026

Electricity generation from solar could exceed coal in ERCOT for the first time in 2026

In our most recent Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), we forecast that annual electric power generation from utility-scale solar will surpass that from coal for the first time in 2026 within the electricity grid that covers most of Texas. Solar generation is expected to reach 78 billion kilowatthours (BkWh) in 2026 in the electricity grid operated by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) compared with 60 BkWh for coal.

The United States set record energy production in 2025, again

The United States set record energy production in 2025, again

Total energy production in the United States increased to a new record of 107 quadrillion British thermal units (quads) in 2025, a 3.4% increase from the previous record set in 2024, according to new data in our Monthly Energy Review. Total production was driven by record-high production in natural gas, crude oil, natural gas plant liquids (NGPLs), and renewables. This was the fourth consecutive year in which the United States set a record for total energy production.

One-fifth of U.S. renewable diesel and SAF production was exported in 2H25

One-fifth of U.S. renewable diesel and SAF production was exported in 2H25

The United States exported nearly 50,000 barrels per day (b/d) of renewable diesel and other biofuels—a category which includes sustainable aviation fuel (SAF)—in the second half of 2025 (2H25), about 20% of the combined production for those fuels. About half of these exports went to Canada, with the rest mostly going to Europe.

To set up Appium on your notebook, you’ll need to meet the following requirements:

Operating System:
- Appium supports macOS, Linux, and Windows operating systems. Ensure your notebook runs one of these.
Node.js and NPM:
- Install Node.js (version in the SemVer range ^14.17.0 || ^16.13.0 || >=18.0.0).
- NPM (Node Package Manager) is usually bundled with Node.js, but you can upgrade it independently. Make sure your NPM version is >= 8.
Appium Installation:
- Install Appium globally using NPM:
```
npm install -g appium
```
Appium Server:
- Start the Appium server by running:
```
appium
```
- If you see output like “[Appium] Welcome to Appium v2.0.0,” the server is up and running ¹ ².
Additional Dependencies:
- To automate a specific platform (e.g., Android or iOS), refer to the documentation of the corresponding Appium driver(s) for any additional dependencies.
- Typically, you’ll need the developer toolchain and SDKs specific to the platform you’re testing ¹.

Remember to adapt the installation steps to your specific environment. Happy testing! 🚀📱

The disk space requirements for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm are relatively modest:

Appium:
- By itself, Appium is lightweight and doesn’t have significant disk space requirements.
- It can even run in resource-constrained environments like Raspberry Pi, as long as Node.js is available.
- No specific disk space quota is needed for Appium alone.
Node.js and npm:
- Node.js and npm are essential for running Appium.
- The installation of Node.js and npm doesn’t consume much disk space.
- However, ensure you have enough space for other development tools and dependencies.

In summary, a few gigabytes of free space should suffice for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm on your notebook. Happy testing! 🚀📱
