On January 13, 2026, U.S. President Trump posted on Truth Social that Microsoft would make major adjustments to its data centers starting this week to prevent the public from bearing the brunt of rising energy costs. He emphasized that while data centers are crucial for the development of artificial intelligence, the large tech companies building these facilities should bear the costs themselves. Previously, U.S. electricity prices had risen more than the overall inflation rate, and the rapid construction of data centers was seen as one of the reasons for the electricity price hikes.
