At the Data Center Knowledge News Desk during Data Center World 2025, ExoFusion CEO Romi Mahajan shared his perspective on the evolving energy landscape and the need for fundamental changes in how we power data centers.
With data centers already consuming 3% of global electricity and projections suggesting this could reach 10% within five to seven years, he emphasized the urgent need for diversification beyond fossil fuels.
Drawing from his 25 years of technology leadership experience, Mahajan offered a pragmatic vision for the future – one in which nuclear fusion, fission, renewables, and even fossil fuels each play crucial roles in a balanced energy ecosystem.
The key message? “Having an energy monoculture is a terrible idea for the world.”
