Reuters reports that due to community opposition, power shortages, and regulatory pressures in the construction of AI data centers in the United States, tech companies and developers are turning to new regions. Southern Argentina's Patagonia has emerged as a new candidate, characterized by its cold climate, abundant energy, vast land, and sparse population, with no significant public opposition currently evident. Companies such as Pampa Energia and FlexDomes are exploring the construction of data centers in the area, though most projects are still in the research and financing stages, facing infrastructure, political, and funding risks.
