"U.S. electricity demand was essentially flat for two decades. Then ChatGPT happened. Building new transmission lines takes years. Permitting a natural gas plant takes longer."
"Oklo is pre-revenue with a ~14 GW customer pipeline anchored by a 12 GW Switch agreement, and the stock is up 167.58% over the past year."
"Vertiv Holdings is the cleanest picks-and-shovels name. Q1 2026 brought adjusted EPS of $1.17 versus $1.01 expected, on revenue of $2.65 billion."
Electricity bills have surged due to the rising demand from AI data centers, particularly in states like Virginia, Texas, Ohio, and Arizona. The power grid is struggling to keep up with this demand, which has increased sharply since the advent of AI technologies like ChatGPT. Building new energy infrastructure takes significant time, leading to a projected moratorium on AI data centers by 2026. Investments in nuclear energy and cooling technologies are seen as potential solutions to meet this growing demand.
