To understand Arbor’s innovation, start with coal plants, which burn fossil fuels to heat up water and produce steam that turns a turbine to generate electricity.

He said AI itself would design better gas turbines, solar panels, wind turbines and fusion energy to produce more cost effective sustainable energy.

"If you want to go a longer distance, or if there's a diversion, you can switch over to the turbines."

The plan eventually could see 1,600 turbines as tall as the Eiffel Tower in federal waters 20 to 50 miles offshore, producing enough electricity for 25 million homes.

The farm has a total generation capacity of 4.5 megawatts, about the same as a medium-sized wind turbine.
