To Find Available Grid Capacity for Data Centers, GridCARE Performs a Grid MRI
-

By:
Utilities are struggling to provide enough capacity to meet the needs of data centers and other large loads. To address this challenge, GridCARE performs an "MRI" of the grid and finds unused capacity in utility systems, cutting utility costs and helping avoid building fossil-fired plants. For example, for Portland General Electric, GridCARE identified 400 MW of existing infrastructure to meet the needs of five data centers, and the data centers signed flexible interconnection agreements with the utility. GridCARE is also working with National Grid.
Data centers, large loads and developers pay GridCARE, which partners with utilities and doesn't charge them.
