## Resource

In this episode, tech visionary and ECL CEO Yuval Bachar joins the conversation to unveil how hydrogen is solving the massive power and sustainability crisis currently facing the AI industry. Drawing on his leadership experience at Microsoft and Facebook, Bachar explains how ECL is moving beyond the traditional electrical grid to deploy modular, off-grid data centers that run entirely on hydrogen fuel cells, effectively eliminating carbon emissions and the need for external water cooling. The discussion dives into the radical efficiency of 3D-printed facility "blocks" that can be deployed in just months rather than years, the strategic importance of their new one-gigawatt site in Texas, and why Bachar believes that integrating localized energy generation is the only way to support the "unprecedented demand" of 100-kilowatt server racks without breaking the planet's infrastructure.
