Why It Matters
日本企業の関与は確認できないが、ロボティクス産業の成長がエネルギー需要に影響を与える可能性がある。
Verified Facts
Reported- The robotics industry could require 363 TWh of electricity annually by 2035, according to Wood Mackenzie research.
- This figure is equivalent to the yearly consumption of around 35 million average US households.
- The finding comes as energy capacity planning is already under pressure from AI data centres.
- ロボティクス産業は2035年までに年間363 TWhの電力を必要とする可能性がある。
- これは約3500万世帯分の電力消費に相当する。
- 研究はWood Mackenzieによって行われた。
