The World Economic Forum projects that extreme heat and drought add $3.3 trillion in cumulative costs to today's data centers by 2055, equal to 9.5 percent of total asset value under a high-emissions scenario. Annual expenses climb from $81 billion by 2035 to $168 billion by 2065, with heat driving more than two-thirds of the impact.
