A new Bloomberg report highlights concerns that the surge of AI data centers is distorting the US power grid. Analysis from Whisker Labs reveals that over half of households experiencing severe power distortions are near significant data center operations. This distortion could damage appliances, increase fire risks, and lead to outages. Experts warn that the fluctuating energy demands of these data centers exceed what the grid is designed to handle. In response, utility representatives have questioned the report's accuracy, indicating ongoing debates about the impact of AI infrastructure on energy systems.
