On the order of 20MW continuous draw, saved you the math.
That’s pretty small for an industrial load and some hyperscale data-centers are in the 500MW scale.
500mw???
Metric motherfucker, do you speak it?
Watts are metric.
So is m - milli and M - mega. Which the poster above does not seem to understand.

A bunch of the under-construction sites are set to be GW consumers as well.
Don’t you mean milliwatt???
