While China leads in solar and wind power, the US holds a strategic advantage in enhanced geothermal and new nuclear energy. The surging power demand from AI data centres presents an opportunity for the US to leverage these reliable, non-intermittent technologies and compete with Beijing's dominance in the global energy system.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.
