Google has revealed how much energy it consumes to power YouTube, Gmal and its other services in the internet ‘cloud’ – and it’s enough to power the capital of Utah.
Google added the figures in ‘The Big Picture’ section of its Google Green website on Thursday.
The numbers show Google’s data centers use 260million watts – enough to power a city of 100,000 to 200,000 people.
Salt Lake City, Utah, by comparison, has a population of 186,440.
