"Maximum Generation Alert" Declared On America's Largest Power Grid
America's largest power grid has issued another "Maximum Generation Alert" and "Load Management Alert" as temperatures soar across the eastern half of the U.S. This comes amid a national trend of retiring fossil fuel power plants and replacing them with unreliable 'green' energy sources—creating a severe mismatch between baseload capacity and rising demand, and raising the risk of rolling blackouts in some areas.
PJM Interconnection, the operator of the largest U.S. power grid serving 65 million people across 13 states and D.C., issued a "Maximum Generation Alert and Load Management Alert" for Wednesday, ordering all available power generation to run at full capacity to ensure power demand is met during peak hours amid tightening conditions.
PJM's grid alerts are procedural and inform neighboring grids of potential export curtailments, advising transmission/generation owners...

Is There Enough Water To Quench The Thirst Of AI Super Data Centers?
Authored by Autumn Spredemann via The Epoch Times,
While artificial intelligence (AI) reshapes the way America does business, the number of data centers being built to meet its expanding computational demands has kicked off a construction boom.
Millions of gallons of water are needed for cooling these new data centers, a demand that has risen in lockstep with the expansion of AI support facilities.
The amount of water needed to power the data center building bonanza has triggered concerns about water supplies and groundwater safety in arid and water-stressed cities, where many of the complexes are being built.
Sergio Toro, CEO of market intelligence group Aterio, shared research with The Epoch Times that showed there are 1,827 active data centers in the United States, with another 1,726 announced and 419 currently under construction.
Hundreds of the new centers are being planned or built in areas suffering from water scarcity...
