Together with hosts Charlie Jelen and Dan Gentry, Jason breaks down the rise of “bring your own power” data centers and explains how pairing wind, batteries, and firming gas near-site can dramatically reduce interconnection timelines and avoid passing grid costs to ratepayers. We also talk gen-ties, utility feeds for stability, and how some data centers could be powered by up to 70% renewable energy.We also have:HVAC Headlines: The first U.S. sodium-ion grid battery and what it means - could this reshape energy storage?Hot or Not: Producer Elena asks Charlie and Dan: are microgrids the future of data centers?
