I don't know what the power consumption of an individual data center is, but your link talks about the consumption of all datacenters in individual states/countries.



A couple hundred megawatts is what I would expect from a data center, and had planned out before commenting, so that's on the mark. An H100 is very roughly a kW after adding in all the rest of the overhead, so a 200MW data center would have 200,000 H100s. That's massive cluster, but not inconceivable.
