The AI boom is challenging our most fundamental resource: Power. As energy expert Dr. Michael E. Webber, Sid Richardson Chair in Public Affairs & Cockrell Family Chair #16 in Engineering of The University of Texas at Austin, confirms in the latest Horizons episode, the bottleneck to the entire AI economy is our century-old electricity grid. The decision to modernize is a national imperative, demanding immediate action to overcome these systemic constraints. Dr. Webber's essential focus on overcoming bottlenecks: 🔹 Solve the Growth Lag: The power sector must quickly re-learn how to build and expand capacity to meet the historic surge in demand. 🔹 Embrace Cross-Sector Collaboration: We need collective effort and investment to streamline regulatory processes and speed up projects. 🔹 AI as the Solution: Leverage AI's power to drive optimization and accelerate key technology discovery to unlock new energy sources. The only way forward is to eliminate the constraint. Watch now: https://lnkd.in/dS9heW9v #Horizons #GridResilience #AI #EnergyTransition #DigitalInfrastructure

The secret to a fulfilling career isn't always found in the office. Sometimes, it's found in the community. In this clip from our Extending the Ladder podcast, Cathy Weadock-Russell, CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of North Central Illinois, shares a powerful reminder about the profound, soul-filling rewards of giving back. This principle of community engagement is why we are so proud to announce our new partnership with BGCNCIL, sponsoring their Industry Clubs to create opportunities for teens to connect with their passions and future careers.

The Schneider Electric Innovation Summit has been an incredible look into the future and we were thrilled to join the conversation. In a fun interview with Bill Kleyman, our CEO Chris Crosby talked about navigating this moment of massive scale. He highlighted our long-standing partnership with Schneider Electric where our collaborative work in AI-driven predictive analytics helps maximize uptime and lower costs for our customers. Chris also shared a vision for the future where data centers can be good partners to the grid itself helping to transform energy infrastructure. It's a wonderful opportunity to contribute back to the communities we serve. A huge thank you to Bill for the great conversation and to Schneider Electric for hosting a landmark event. This is how we build the future together. #DigitalInfrastructure #DataCenters #Innovation #AI #EnergyTransition #Partnership
