AI data centers on the East Coast are gobbling up so much juice that nonprofit grid operator PJM may be forced to enact rolling blackouts on its customers during both heat waves and exceptionally cold weather just to protect the grid’s integrity.

Increasing demand from the tech industry threatens to max out generation capacity in a 13-state region. Consumers are furious about rate increases.

The mid-Atlantic grid operator PJM Interconnection faces a capacity crunch of titanic proportions as AI computing investment rushes headlong into its 13-state region, home to more than 67 million people.

Le Xie, Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), wants to know how we can modernize the electric grid to support rapid electrification and the growing demands of AI infrastructure.

In 2015 on a cold December afternoon, approximately 230,000 Ukrainians suddenly lost access to electrical power. In many countries around the world, grid outages aren’t an uncommon phenomenon, and the

GridAI Technologies (NASDAQ: GRDX) is aligning its platform with a structural shift in how the electric grid is operated as accelerating AI workloads, electrification, and distributed energy

The rapid development and widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI) systems is posing new challenges for electricity consumption. This is because most AI systems rely on data centers, facilities hosting several computing servers that store and process large amounts of data.
