Musk says SpaceX to cast key gas turbine parts to ease AI power bottlenecks

Elon Musk says SpaceX will directly cast key gas turbine components to reduce power-supply bottlenecks for AI infrastructure. A secret foundry in Bastrop, Texas is known as a facility to make turbine blades and vanes. Musk says solar capacity is being built rapidly at SpaceX and Tesla, but natural gas will be needed for several years. The move comes as data centres face constraints from power grids and turbine supply limits, amid rising concerns over air pollution and health impacts.

Power supply emerges as biggest bottleneck to AI expansion as Altman infrastructure warning revisited

Power constraints are again in focus as a key bottleneck that could hinder the development of more powerful AI. As AI models advance, demand for data centres and computing resources is surging, but power generation and transmission infrastructure is harder to expand at the same pace. TechRadar revisited past remarks by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, who warned that AI would consume far more energy than expected and called for breakthroughs including fusion and cheaper solar and storage.

China\'s EV export push puts U.S., Japan automakers on alert

Chinese automakers are rapidly expanding in overseas markets such as Southeast Asia and Latin America to avoid high U.S. tariff barriers, an analysis said. Cleantechnica said incumbents that are slow to shift to electric vehicles could lose overseas sales bases and see long-term competitiveness weaken. IEA data showed China\'s EV exports topped 2.5 million in 2025, while Southeast Asia\'s EV imports exceeded 300,000, mostly from China.
