In parts of Britain and North America, securing the power for a new AI data centre can take five to 15 years as grid queues, permitting and community opposition slow projects—one reason orbital-computing companies now argue that launching servers into space could be quicker than securing land and power for them on Earth.

Orbital servers may reach a launch pad before a constrained terrestrial project receives power, but beating a grid queue is not the same as matching a hyperscale data centre.
