Time to Power: How Data Center Developers Can Fast-Track Energization in a Constrained Grid
Power is now the primary constraint on data center development; not land, not capital, not compute. With grid interconnection queues stretching five to six years in key markets and ISOs acknowledging only about 20% of queued generation is actually under construction, the old model of waiting for the utility to catch up simply does not […]

Interconnection Queue Decisions: Should I Stay or Should I Go?
In 1982, The Clash released “Should I Stay or Should I Go.” And while generator interconnection was unlikely their muse, the chorus does ring true for project developers navigating the interconnection process. Similar to the tenuous relationship in the song, the interconnection decision-making process is also non-transparent and wavering. On the one hand, developers want to […]
The Virtual Power Plant Landscape: Scaling Distributed Aggregation
From Pilot Programs to Grid‑Scale Assets The transition toward a decentralized grid has moved beyond localized experiments into a coordinated regulatory and technical effort to harness the sleeping giant of residential capacity. Across North America, Independent System Operators (ISOs) and Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs) are currently implementing framework changes to comply with FERC Order 2222. […]
Precision Power Forecasting: Enverus Delivers Superior PJM Load Forecasts Amid Late January Cold Stress
During the last week of January, the PJM Interconnection was operating in the immediate aftermath of the January 23–27 winter storm Fern, which occurred within the broader January–February 2026 North American cold wave. The storm brought widespread snowfall and prolonged below average temperatures across much of PJM’s area, affecting the Midwest, Ohio Valley, and Mid‑Atlantic […]
Power Certainty at Scale: How Hyperscalers Are Rethinking Data Center Expansion
Power Has Become the Primary Constraint on Hyperscale Growth Hyperscalers are entering the largest capital deployment cycle in the history of the technology sector. AI-driven workloads are accelerating data center development at unprecedented speed. As cited in a recent pv magazine article, Enverus Intelligence Research (EIR) projects U.S. electricity demand will rise 34% by 2050. Data Centers and EVs Power New […]
Precision Power Forecasting: Enverus Nails December Peaks as Arctic Air Drives Load Spikes
In mid-December 2025, a powerful winter storm accompanied by an Arctic cold outbreak affected much of the central and eastern United States between December 13–15. A strong surge of frigid air spread southward from Canada, producing widespread below-zero temperatures (°F) and heavy snowfall in several regions. The storm system brought significant snowfall across the Midwest, […]
