these centers do use combined cycle power plants as a power source, which do use water. its not the equipment itself that requires the water, but the power plant. However there are systems now adays that minimize the use of water, that recycle the water and produce solid waste instead.

So the problem is not the datacenter, it's the lack of power generation.

its not the "lack" of power generation, its that datacenters have their own private power sources, which do require water, but that water is not "consumed" as the general public thinks. Its cycled through multiple times. either way something is amiss with the general public sentiment vs reality. I dont know which is correct.
