Artificial intelligence technologies, particularly large language models, have significantly increased energy consumption, potentially accounting for over 10% of U.S. electricity consumption in five years. Data centers managing AI can use 20 to 30 times more energy than traditional models, raising concerns about climate change. However, this challenge also presents opportunities to enhance grid management and efficiency. Companies like Kraken Technologies are leveraging AI to optimize energy flows and increase efficiencies in renewable energy usage, aiming to mitigate environmental impacts while improving energy supply management.
One of the biggest challenges with providing energy to a data center is optimizing the flow of that energy, and that is a problem that AI can be extremely helpful in solving.
When you transition to renewable energy, you get a completely new set of problems, explaining the company's role in analyzing the demand for renewables to create a system that stores or deploys energy based on that demand.
