Why Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (MMLP) Stock is Gaining This Week
The ongoing artificial intelligence boom is set to transform the global energy sector. According to a recent report by the International Energy Agency, electricity demand from data centers worldwide is set to more than double by 2030 to around 945 terawatt-hours (TWh), slightly more than the entire electricity consumption of Japan today. Moreover, while the American big-tech has kept its focus on renewable energy over the last decade to reduce its carbon footprint, the sector is now also opening up to fossil fuels as a viable option to power its data centers.
Natural gas has emerged as a forerunner to power the AI boom, since it is relatively clean, reliable, and abundant. However, gas prices aren't what they used to be, having risen by over 190% since March 2024. Another viable option is nuclear energy, which has gained worldwide attention recently following the CERAWeek conference in March, when several tech giants signed a pledge to support the goal of at least tripling the world's nuclear energy capacity by 2050.
There have also been fears recently that the power demand required by the ballooning AI industry may have been overestimated, which led to several energy stocks posting significant declines not so long ago. However, the recently reported better-than-expected results from the cloud and AI businesses of some major American tech companies have somewhat eased these concerns.
