Show Notes
Big Techs AI data centers are driving a surge in electricity demand, but a solution lies in your neighborhood: virtual power plants. These setups, powered by home batteries, smart appliances, and coordinated households, can rival traditional plants in speed and cost. In California, home batteries delivered enough power for half of San Francisco for two hours. Homeowners benefit from lower bills and free batteries, while grids get reliable backup without lengthy construction. Google and companies like Base Power are investing in home batteries, and states are pushing data centers to cover costs via home upgrades. Your home could soon offset Big Techs energy appetite while saving you money.
