Peter Boockvar(@pboockvar):From Eaton speaking at a conference yesterday, just jaw dropping numbers: “So, when we released our Q2 numbers the total announced projects for data centers was 307 gigawatts to be built, just think about that. And now today, we checked this week, it’s already 342 gigawatts. So, a month later, it’s already more. And then you contrast to what this industry has ever built. We have installed 50 gigawatts. So, today operating, there are 50 gigawatts. So, we are talking about between 6x and 7x what exists today is what’s going to be built in the next years. Most of this is not going to turn into ‘27 or ‘28 revenues. So, it’s going to be a longer cycle, that’s the way to think about it.”
