The U.S. government has given the green light for AI data centers to connect to the grid, requiring operators to speed up the approval process.
BlockBeats News, June 19 — The U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on Thursday demanded that grid operators accelerate the processing of interconnection applications for data centers and other large electricity consumers. According to the order, the six major grid operators must demonstrate that data centers can connect to the transmission system in a "timely and orderly manner." Data centers are responsible for their own interconnection costs. The resolution was unanimously approved by the commissioners.
FERC also opened up space for early-stage grid technology startups, requiring grid operators to consider "alternative transmission technologies." Although not explicitly named, this directive may include technologies such as solid-state transformers or superconducting transmission lines.
Currently, grid operators are required to submit reports within 30 days indicating whether they have available generation redundancy capacity (if any). They must also "justify or revise" their regional electricity pricing systems within 60 days. Additionally, FERC instructed grid operators to further support data centers' use of "behind-the-meter power" (i.e., user-side self-generation/self-supply power).
