Rayburn Electric, the rural electric cooperative generation and transmission association located northeast of Dallas, is preparing for the future as best it knows how: building more generation. That ...
Those dynamics are examined in a new peer-reviewed study titled Power for AI Data Centers: Energy Demand, Grid Impacts, Challenges and Perspectives, published in Energies. The research finds that AI ...
Across the U.S., new AI-driven data centers are causing a significant increase in power demand. Carbon Direct projects that data center capacity in the U.S. will grow from roughly 25 GW in 2024 to 120 ...
Renewables and storage could reliably power data centers, but success requires active grids, coordinated planning, and the right mix of technologies. Hitachi Energy CTO, Gerhard Salge, tells pv ...
In 2018, data center power consumption as a whole reached a total of 205 TWh, almost 1% of the global electricity supply, 1 solidifying their fundamental role in the worldwide network infrastructure ...
Given marching orders by the U.S. Energy Dept. to boost artificial intelligence sector growth, independent agency Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) now must absorb nearly 200 diverging power ...
For decades, data centers were designed with permanence in mind: fixed plans, rigid shapes and predictable life cycles. Physical constraints of legacy architectures made them inherently static. But in ...
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on Sept. 18 advanced four reliability measures for the U.S. bulk power system (BPS), formalizing frameworks around supply chain risk, cloud computing ...
