US power struggle: How data centre demand is challenging the electricity market model

WoodMac's thoughtful assessment is, "Something will have to give. Regulatory intervention or a new set of rules are likely to emerge from what could become a growing crisis." This is why we offer state policymakers a risk-free and cost-free alternative: "Consumer Regulated Electricity" or CRE. CRE policy would allow the creation of new, independent, competitive, and large-scale utilities. These new entrepreneurial ventures can go to work tackling the challenge before it becomes a crisis. And best of all, it imposes zero risk on existing utilities and grids and imposes zero cost on taxpayers and existing ratepayers.
