Why would anyone be so retarded to put GPUs anywhere in India except in Kashmir, Ladakh, Himiachal and Uttaranchal?
The cooling costs will mog all profit potential anywhere else.
In the US, they try and put everything in the northern states where there is snow (sub 0 temperatures) like 8 months of the year
>availability of land>cost of land
ladakh is an empty land
and the land belongs to gormint
so free land essentially if gormint allows is
>schemes, incentives
ladakh being a UT, it is very easy for central gormint to do these things
>power supply costs and electricity availability.
ladakh has some of the highest solar energy falling down on it, check picrel
place the place if naturally cold af
ladakh mogs every other place of placing GPUs

ladakh isnt a power surplus state also as i said, it has one major factor which is incentives. cooling infrastructure can be optimized for conditions but what would you do investing in a place where there are no incentives.
also idk how many people would happily want to go to hilly regions to work. stil, this is all just guesses on our side.
