Artificial intelligence is fueling a surge in electricity demand, and U.S. power companies are suddenly seeing a rare opportunity for new growth and investment from the tech industry. POLITICO’s Debra Kahn breaks down this emerging tech-energy alliance and how the AI boom could actually be both a blessing and a curse for utility companies.
