WULF CEO reveals modern AI data centers use minimal water via closed-loop systems
robleclerc · x · 2026-08-24
TeraWulf CEO Paul Prager argues that media narratives on data center water usage are disconnected from reality. Their 600MW Lake Mariner facility required only a single-digit gallon top-up after an initial 10,000-gallon fill, significantly less than an average U.S. swimming pool (15-20k gallons), demonstrating the efficiency of modern closed-loop systems.
