.@Google taps @XcelEnergyMN to supply data center with 1200 MW wind, 200 MW solar and 300 MW / 30 GWh @FormEnergyInc iron-air batteries, through new BYONCE (bring your own new clean electricity) tariff construct.
https://t.co/iW5Xx4FZnx Google will also pay for all grid needed upgrades.
BYONCE may be coming to Georgia.
That’s BYONCE as in Bring Your Own New Clean Energy — a very catchy acronym for a concept Georgia Power and regulators are working into their program to get data centers online faster.

Data centers can’t wait for grid connections. They need massive amounts of electricity, and they need it now.
The clear path forward is for data centers to build modular, off-grid power like Solar + Terrament.

🤯 $7 TRILLION. That's how much data centers need by 2030 to meet AI compute demand.
The critical bottleneck? ENERGY. We need $1.3 trillion for "Energizers" - power, transmission, and infrastructure including Long Duration Energy Storage

@CleanPowerDave Thanks @CleanPowerDave, this is awesome.
Question: This shows durations of 17+hours, but Li-ion is too expensive at that duration right? (The LCOS will spike because the capacity factor of each battery will will drop). Is this assuming other LDES like mechanical will be used?
Research Announcement!🎯
Terrament has validated key metrics after winning 2 EnergyWERX grants from U.S. DOE (@ENERGY).
With @WCETestbeds →🔋Under 10¢/kWh lifetime cost (LCOS)
With @lhpes→⚡Over 80% round-trip efficiency
Ready to scale! Learn more: https://t.co/P9axdMJZHo
Our current power grid simply can't handle AI data centers unless we reinforce power connections with renewables + storage to alleviate massive grid strain that would otherwise trigger blackouts. Terrament is eager to provide a cheap, low-risk solution!

It may not be fashionable to say these days, but the dual threats of the climate crisis and energy transition crisis are not going away. We need to urgently prioritize strengthening and growing our power grid.
We need more thoughtful, coherent strategies.

A Trillion-Dollar Infrastructure Play Hidden in Plain Sight: Energy Storage for AI Data Centers
The AI revolution requires massive buildouts of:
1: Energy ⚡
2: Transmission 🔌
3: Energy Storage 🔋
Why Energy Storage is an underrated investment👇

Huge congrats to @fervoenergy for raising half a $Billion last year and drastically increasing drilling speeds.
The Earth's subsurface is the next frontier for massive-scale cleantech, providing geothermal, white hydrogen, and gravity storage.

Just a reminder: Terrament is, and will remain committed to DEI+
This is not just a moral decision, it's an obvious business decision. The evidence clearly shows that diverse teams perform better and make more money. https://t.co/0FUBOUB9zw…
