Power, Utilities & Infrastructure: Powering global datacenter growth

In this episode, Shelby Tucker (Managing Director, U.S. Power & Utilities Analyst), Elvira Scotto (Managing Director, Midstream & Pipelines Analyst) and Robert Kwan (Managing Director, Head of Global Power, Utilities & Infrastructure Research) at RBC Capital Markets discuss the potential for significant future growth in electricity consumption driven by increasing datacenter capacity.
