## Quote — verbatim

> Smaller compute clusters can run near sources of localized renewable energy such as solar, wind, or geothermal energy, or take advantage of underutilized compute power sitting idle in homes, campuses, and communities.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

His energy-adjacent, local-compute vision as the alternative to hyperscale facilities; also cites resilience against cyber attacks and grid failures.
