ssociated power infrastructure in 2025 civil rights and environmental groups challenged permits connected to an xai facility in the memphis area arguing that air pollution burdens could fall disproportionately on historically overburdened neighbourhoods the dispute has been the subject of regulatory and legal proceedings 41 42 43 climate solutions edit despite concerns about its environmental footprint ai has been used in environmental and climate related applications including weather forecasting earth observation and optimisation in transport and energy systems in weather forecasting peer reviewed studies have reported strong results for some ai based forecasting systems under specific evaluation frameworks a 2023 nature paper on pangu weather reported strong medium range forecasting performance relative to a leading numerical weather prediction system in the study s evaluation 44 ai has also been used in research on extreme weather and climate event modelling 45 ai has also been proposed for mitigation oriented optimisation google s green light project for example uses traffic data and machine learning to recommend traffic signal timing adjustments intended to reduce stop and go traffic and associated emissions at intersections 46 whether ai produces net environmental benefits at large scale remains an open question because outcomes depend on deployment choices rebound effects additional infrastructure demand and the extent to which electricity and cooling systems are decarbonised 1 conflict on the use of ai for environmental research edit there is ongoing debate over the balance between the possible environmental benefits of ai applications and the environmental costs of scaling ai systems this includes discussion of transparency efficiency rebound effects and the extent to which ai related infrastructure growth may offset environmental gains from specific applications 2 5 policy and regulation edit united states edit in the united states proposals have been introduced to study and standardise reporting on ai s environmental impacts the artificial intelligence environmental impacts act of 2024 s 3732 introduced in the senate in february 2024 would require a federal study on the environmental impacts of ai direct the national institute of standards and technology to convene a consortium on measurement and standards and establish a voluntary reporting system 7 policy on ai is split between federal and state governments federal regulations have been minimal with president trump saying on the ai gov website the united states is in a race to achieve global dominance in artificial intelligence whoever has the largest ai ecosystem will set the global standards and reap broad economic and security benefits 47 state policy edit local and state governments have looked to address environmental and infrastructural impacts as of 2026 at least 27 states are considering or have put legislation related to data center development with california ohio and utah being the first to pass legislation this legislation requires data center developers to bear the costs of new energy infrastructure some states are also pushing for legislation requiring data centers to report water use an issue not addressed by the federal government states are looking to focus on data collection related to data center water use 48 a 2025 study published by nature sustainability estimated that ai servers in the united states could require approximately 731 to 1 125 million cubic meters of water annually by the year 2030 with 24 to 44 million metric tons of carbon emissions this study found that current growth trajectories are unlikely to meet net zero targets without policy 49 european union edit in the european union the energy efficiency directive introduced reporting obligations for large data centres the european commission has stated that a european database collects information relevant to the energy performance and water footprint of data centres and that a delegated regulation sets out the information and key performance indicators for the reporting scheme 6 eu member states also maintain national ai strategies some of which include references to sustainability energy efficiency or environmental applications of ai france edit france s ai strategy documents have discussed ai in relation to ecological transition and environmental applications including the use of digital infrastructure and data for environmental policy 50 germany edit germany s national ai strategy includes sections on the environmental impacts of ai and on research into energy efficient and sustainable ai applications 51 italy edit italy s national ai strategy documents include sustainability related priorities and discuss ai applications in areas such as environment infrastructure and sustainable development goals 52 see also edit workplace impact of artificial intelligence environmental impact of bitcoin environmental impact of computers digital decarbonisation notes edit water withdrawal refers to freshwater taken from ground or surface sources either temporarily or permanently 21 water consumption is often defined as water withdrawal minus water discharge such as water evaporated or otherwise removed from the immediate water environment 21 references edit 1 2 3 4 executive summary energy and ai
