The industrial chillers I have worked with (200-460 KW units) have about a 2.5KW of heat removal per 1KW of electrical power used by the chillers.
Quick Calculation: I would guess that a maximum of 30% of the electric bill is for AC. In other works a 10MW data center would need up to 4MW of cooling and have a total electric usage of up to14MW.
