AI computing power demand is exploding, but the bottleneck is not chips, but electricity.



This view has recently sparked lively discussion in the market. The energy sector has also gained attention—traditional power, photovoltaic power generation, energy storage systems, nuclear fusion technology, all kinds of capital are betting on the next hot spot. The question is: which track can truly break through?

Looking at past trajectories makes it clear. The craze for commercial spaceflight has cooled down, and capital has shifted its focus to brain-computer interfaces, robots, and semiconductors. Now, energy has become the focus. From early 2026 to now, major tech sub-sectors continue to fluctuate actively, with the pace of hot spot switching accelerating.

Can nuclear fusion take over? Will new energy continue to heat up? Or is it just another wave of hype around computing power concepts? The market is still searching for answers. The key is, whoever can truly solve the bottleneck of electricity supply will be able to reap the next wave of growth dividends.

ah here we go again... *checks charts from 2021* "power bottleneck" discourse, except last time it was bandwidth in 2017 and supply chain in 2020. fascinating how we keep repackaging the same fear narrative with new tech labels tbh

Electricity really is a big problem, but it feels like it's just hype again... Capital is like this, wave after wave, no one truly solving the problem How long has nuclear fusion been hyped? We still have to rely on traditional power

It's the same story again. Haven't seen a reliable trend this year. Quick money makers can never outpace genuine technology. Electricity has been hyped for so long, why hasn't it been widely adopted yet?

It's the same rotation again; capital always chases the hot spots, but I've never seen anyone truly solve the problem.
