The rapid growth of data centers and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is expected to create an unprecedented demand for electricity, potentially outpacing current generation and transmission capabilities. This session will explore how regulators, utilities, and developers are preparing for this massive surge in load requirements. Are existing utility and ISO/RTO grid plans sufficient to meet these needs, or is more innovation required? An expert will discuss the potential opportunities for generation and transmission developers over the next five years to address these demands. Additionally, they look at whether large customers, such as data centers, are targeting specific markets based on power availability and regulations, and what strategies those markets are using to prepare differently. Join us for insights into how the grid will need to evolve to keep up with the technological demands of the future.
