Data centers are creating a grid crunch, so what if they paid to
solve it by upgrading our homes? I chat with Rewiring America’s
Ari Matusiak and PG&E’s Carla Peterman about a new report
proposing that hyperscalers fund household electrification to
free up the grid capacity they desperately need. We explore how
this reframes households as crucial energy infrastructure and
creates a win-win-win for tech companies, utilities, and everyday
people.
