A proposed data center in northwestern Alberta could generate dozens of atomic bombs worth of heat every day.
All the sources I’m finding say 7 to 18 GW, not 20 MW.
I took the energy of 23 trinity bombs and divided it over 24hrs to get ~20MW.
I think you should take another look at that calculation. You’re off by several orders of magnitude.
