New reports reveal households paid $360 extra per year due to data center demand, with Dublin now the EU’s most expensive capital for power. The UN warns Ireland’s digital infrastructure concentration is a cautionary tale, urging smarter planning.

With data centers consuming 22% of Ireland’s electricity (vs. 5% in Germany and the UK), the “exceptionalism” narrative is being challenged by the hard facts.
