Divergent Expectations on AI Data Centers' Impact on Job Creation
The Verdant Economic Research Center reported that the UK government and sector leaders approved the construction of new data centers, but they believe job estimates are overstated. Verdant estimates that current data centers support around 4,400 jobs, compared to Tech UK’s estimate of 24,300 jobs.
Verdant forecasts about 10,400 operational jobs by 2035, which is roughly a quarter of Tech UK's estimate of 40,200 jobs. Tech UK's estimate relies on the assumption of generating 8.5 jobs per megawatt, while Verdant argues the figure is closer to 1.2 jobs per megawatt.
