A surge in electricity demand from AI data centers, rising energy prices and growing threats are stressing the U.S. grid, citing Lawrence Berkeley Lab estimates that data-center demand could climb from about 176 terawatt-hours in 2023 to 325–580 TWh by 2028 and EIA projections of record consumption in 2026. The article warns $150-per-barrel oil and infrastructure costs could raise bills and recommends household solar-plus-battery systems for backup and resilience.
