AI’s Power Surge: How PJM is Rewriting the Grid Rules - Cozzy Energy Solutions PJM Interconnection is revising its guidelines for behind-the-meter power, a significant adjustment necessitated by the increasing electricity demand from AI-scale data centers, which exceeds the capabilities of the current regulatory framework. For years, PJM’s rules allowed customers with onsite generation to “net” their load, reducing demand counted for transmission charges. This framework, established in 2004,

Powering the Future: Renewables, Grids, and the Challenges Ahead - Cozzy Energy Solutions Renewable energy sources are contributing to national clean energy goals, but they also present challenges for the electric power grid. Solar and wind power generation are often intermittent, meaning they do not consistently produce maximum output during times of peak electricity demand. Renewable sources currently account for roughly 20% of U.S. electricity generation annually. Wind

Commissioner presses need for major transmission upgrades to meet 2035 generation goals Commissioner Braden argued Austin needs substantial new high‑voltage import capacity and local grid work to meet the 2035 resource generation goals, citing Decker and peaker plant closures that left a roughly 700 MW in‑town gap and recommending staff provide a public transmission update.

Austin's energy future hinges on urgent high-voltage transmission upgrades to close a staggering 700 MW gap and meet ambitious 2035 goals.

Corporate Prosumer 2026: Monetizing Energy in Real Time For decades, energy sat quietly on the balance sheet — a controllable cost, trimmed each quarter to protect margins. But in 2026, the equation has fundamentally changed. The rise of the Corporate Prosumer marks a structural shift. Forward-looking CFOs are no longer just purchasing power. They are also producing, storing, and monetizing it. Energy is evolving from a passive expense into a strategic asset. It is a hedge against volatility. It is also a new revenue stream and a competitive sustainability advantage. The future belongs to companies that build integrated clean-energy ecosystems.

The corporate "consumer" is dead. Long live the Prosumer. ⚡ In 2026, energy isn’t a bill you pay—it’s an asset you manage. Learn why the smartest CEOs are turning their factories into power plants. #RenewableEnergy #Prosumer #ESG #GridModernization
