America's largest power grid is facing challenges in meeting the increasing electricity demand driven by artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Microsoft has reported a 168% surge in its energy consumption attributed to AI. According to Deloitte, U.S. investment in AI-related infrastructure is expected to exceed $1 trillion by 2029, with power demand projected to increase thirtyfold by 2035. The growth in AI infrastructure spending is closely linked to energy consumption, as for every dollar invested in high-end chips or cloud computing, an equivalent amount is spent on energy and minerals.
