In the age of AI, electricity is one of the most valuable resources. The data centers that train large models consume as much energy as small cities. That suddenly makes regions with plentiful, affordable energy strategic.
The opportunity
The Caspian basin and Central Asia are rich in both fossil and renewable energy. Today most of this energy is exported raw. If the same energy were turned into computing power in data centers built in the region, the added value would stay there and the Turkic world would have a say in AI infrastructure.
Our proposal
Joint data centers close to energy sources, fiber lines linking them to Türkiye and Europe, and distributed computing models that pool idle capacity. This way the Turkic world gets the highest value from both its energy and its engineering strength.
