Wind energy provides advantages over solar power, generating electricity at any time when wind is available. Onshore turbines typically deliver 2.5–3 MW, while offshore turbines range from 3–6 MW, enough to power medium-sized data centers with a few units. Due to considerations around land costs, noise, and aesthetic concerns, turbines are often placed in remote areas with stronger winds and unobstructed airflow, reducing community resistance and boosting efficiency.

Global smartphone shipments have slowed in recent years due to high inflation, market saturation, and extended replacement cycles. However, the surge in generative AI (GenAI) has injected new life into the stagnant market, with global smartphone demand projected to grow 5% year-over-year, reaching nearly 1.2 billion units in 2024.

Samsung Electronics has reportedly reduced its use of thick photoresist (PR) in the photolithography process for its latest 3D NAND flash, achieving significant cost savings. This move, however, could impact its South Korean supplier, Dongjin Semichem.
