The soaring demand for artificial intelligence data centers has triggered a severe shortage of electricians in the United States, not only slowing down the construction progress of data centers but also posing a potential threat to economic growth. According to a report by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, the United States is expected to require over 300,000 new electricians in the next decade. Currently, the electrician workforce in the United States is aging, with nearly 30% of union electricians aged between 50 and 70, and approximately 20,000 electricians retiring annually. Meanwhile, the construction of data centers is experiencing explosive growth, further exacerbating pressure on the labor market. To address the shortage, tech giants such as Google and Microsoft have invested in electrician training programs.
