Really an interesting read, especially noting that we have the highest utility rates in the country (except perhaps HI, though that’s now debatable).

Just returned from a data center conference, and good lord, we are screwed from a grid standpoint. AI alone will require 2-5X the amount of power data centers are currently consuming. The demand will be so great, every option for power generation is being considered, even coal. . . .
Good luck California with your move to electrification and ridiculously high power rates. Where is the new Mecca? West Texas due to high winds, lots of sun, and little regulations. . . . . .
