The AI boom splits climate tech's inner circle, and the rift is widening
The divide over AI is no longer theoretical. It's splitting climate tech's inner circle, and the rift is widening as data centers demand more power. Some founders and investors see opportunity; others see a distraction from the real work. We think that tension is worth watching closely.

This is not about hype; it is about who can sustain the buildout. Meanwhile, our coverage of Nscale's $3.36B raise shows a similar appetite for scale.
