The Architecture Problem Holding Back AI on the Electric Grid
AI is spreading across electric utilities, but most projects stall. The problem isn’t the algorithms—it’s the data. Grid systems operate on different clocks, from milliseconds to days. Until utilities build time-synchronized data architectures, AI will remain experimental rather than operational.
The Electricity Customer Bill of Rights Part I: A Framework for Infrastructure-Scale Electric Demand
The AI economy needs electricity, but customers should not subsidize its growth. This series proposes an Electricity Customer Bill of Rights to protect affordability, reliability, transparency, communities, and fair cost allocation while enabling responsible infrastructure-scale demand.
