The artificial intelligence boom has created unprecedented pressure and anxiety in the energy industry. The public and private sector alike are expending enormous amounts of effort trying to quantify the amount of electricity that will be needed to power data centers in the near future, and get ahead of the skyrocketing energy demands headed for our already outdated and beleaguered electric grids. But the answer to the energy monster that AI is unleashing could very well lie in the application of AI tools. A new article published by Biglaw firmโฆ
GM wants to slash EV prices by deploying new battery tech up to a year earlier than planned. This building is key to making that happen.
From San Francisco to Stockholm, a new generation of electric ferries is entering passenger service, marking a tipping point for green maritime technology.
The Oregon utility filed for regulatory approval on new rates tied to the state's POWER Act, which requires large energy users to cover their share of infrastructure costs
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D) said Friday he is pausing the stateโs data center tax incentives starting in July amid a push to address concerns about electricity costs and water resources that have plagued the AI infrastructure build-out nationwide. He directed state officials to pause agreements under the Data Center Investment Program, which exempted data...
Japan's government is making long-term plans for replacing up to a dozen nuclear reactors by 2050, to secure its electricity supply, with two to five of these to be rebuilt by the 2040s, the country's economy ministry said today. This is the latest step in a policy reversal for Tokyo, which, following the 2011 Fukushima disaster, closed all of its nuclear reactors and tried to switch to other forms of electricity generation. The Strait of Hormuz crisis, as well as LNG price volatility, has recently prompted a reconsideration of the nuclear-divorceโฆ
Artificial intelligence (AI) is driving a surge in electricity demand, prompting companies to invest in energy technologies, grid infrastructure and innovative data centers.
Brazil is undertaking a major biofuels experiment that could be majorly disruptive for the global energy landscape if it proves effective. The South American country is filthy rich in biomass, and is seeking to use ethanol in novel applications โ in this case, to power the energy grid. A new ethanol-powered engine designed specifically to provide electricity to the grid was just launched at the Suape II power plant in Pernambuco, in a world first. Brazilian energy company Suape Energia has partnered with Finnish technology firm Wรคrtsilรคโฆ
The US has recently launched a new battery production line, which is expected to help researchers develop safer and cheaper energy storage technologies for the electric grid. The new line is housed at the Grid Storage Launchpad (GSL), a 93,000-square-foot research facility. It is run by the Department of Energy's (DOE) Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) in Richland, Washington State. According to PNNL, the newly commissioned production line features a total of 16 pieces of equipment inside a 1,400-square-foot laboratory. It is reportedlyโฆ

South Koreaโs state-run utility Korea Electric Power Corp. (KEPCO) has won a $1.4-billion deal with Saudi oil giant Aramco to build and operate Phase 2 of Saudi Arabiaโs Jafurah cogeneration power plant at the major gas project estimated to need $100 billion of total investments. KEPCOโs cogeneration project entails building a 331-MW cogeneration facility capable of producing about 465 tons of steam per hour by June 2029. The plant is expected to supply electricity and steam to Aramco for 17 years, generating an estimated 2.1โฆ

Pakistan has issued a new tender for LNG, to the amount of 1 million tons, The Nation reported today, citing the seasonal increase in electricity demand as summer heat sets in. This is the fourth LNG tender for the spot market over the last two months as the country grapples with the fallout from the war in the Middle East. Not all of these tenders have resulted in delivery contracts as in some cases even the lowest bids were deemed too expensive for Pakistan LNG Limited, the state-owned operator. Pakistan has relied on Qatar's term LNG supplyโฆ
A regulatory overhaul of Indiaโs grid has sparked fears in the solar power industry that they may suffer a negative impact on profitability. The overhaul includes a stipulation regarding penalties for solar generators if they fail to deliver the electricity that they have committed to supply to the grid, Reuters reported. India's electricity grid is expanding at a slower pace than the boom in solar energy installations, leading to an increased share of solar curtailments and threatening to slow the solar and wind boom in the world's mostโฆ
Artificial intelligence is all the rage these days, and so is its energy consumption. From a game-changing technology that would usher in a new era, AI has recently turned into a problem for manyโa problem that makes electricity more expensive while, apparently, not really living up to the promise of its developers. Big Tech is still pledging tens of billions in AI spend. Now, it may have to spend a bigger portion of those billions on securing its own energy, and on proving its worth the money that AI users would have to spend on the technology.โฆ
