The Energy Evolution of Data Centers

The rapid pace of data center development is testing the ability of utilities to keep pace while providing the steady 24/7 power to businesses and consumers. What if AI data centers could evolve beyond passive electricity users and provide power back to the grid, bolstering grid reliability, resilience, and affordability for all consumers? An EPRI-led effort aims to demonstrate the technologies, policies, and tools to make data center flexibility a reality in different markets. Learn more about data center flexibility in a fireside chat with EPRI and Google.
