درباره این اپیزود
AI data centers are overwhelming the power grid — but the fastest, cheapest, and cleanest solution may already be sitting on rooftops. In this episode, Paul Schuster sits down with Sachu Constantine, Executive Director of Vote Solar, to explore why distributed solar and battery storage are the overlooked key to powering America's AI boom.
Paul and Sachu unpack why utilities are struggling to keep pace with unprecedented data center load growth, why quick-fix solutions like repurposed jet engines fall short on cost, efficiency, and community impact, and how rooftop solar paired with storage at the grid edge can deliver speed, flexibility, and clean energy at scale.
