a16z 三位投资人聊数据中心和电价的关系，还引了一项研究：容量涨10%居民电价降40个基点，跟德州选民认知正好相反。
a16z 的 Alex Immerman、David George 和 Sarah Wang 解释数据中心与电价的关系。他们引用一项美国研究：数据中心容量每增加 10%，居民电价下降 40 个基点。逻辑是把电网视为共享固定成本，数据中心这类大客户可摊薄电线、变电站等成本。但关键前提是开发商自己承担电网升级费用，否则会推高其他人的账单。目前 56% 的德州选民仍认为更多数据中心会抬高电费。

a16z's Alex Immerman, David George, and Sarah Wang on why a data center can lower your electricity bill: "It may seem counterintuitive, but a data center can help lower your electricity rate. A recent US study showed that for every 10% increase in data center capacity, residential rates went down by 40 bps." "You should think about it as a power grid is a shared fixed cost base: poles, wires, substations. A large stable customer, like a data center, can help spread those costs across more units of electricity. Simply put, more demand across a shared system is a positive." "Investment in shared infrastructure can also improve the economics for the households and businesses connected to it." "There's real examples of that today. It's not just lip service." Still, 56% of Texas voters say more data centers would raise their power bills. The catch is it depends on who pays. When developers cover their own grid upgrades instead of pushing them onto everyone else's bills, the savings are real. a16z's @rmcentush on how to get that right: a16z.news/p/why-texas-is… @aleximm @DavidGeorge83 @sarahdingwang Your browser does not support the video tag. 🔗 View on Twitter Ryan McEntush @rmcentush x.com/i/article/2107… 🔗 View Quoted Tweet 💬 0 🔄 1 ❤️ 1 👀 1448 📊 1 ⚡
