Combines Grid Enhancing Technologies with renewable-aware workload migration (AI training, EV charging, hydrogen electrolysis) to reduce curtailment and transmission congestion without new infrastructure. Selected for the CERAWeek 2026 NextGen cohort and poster presentation.
Extends the Trilemma framework into a two-tier data-center siting strategy, separating latency-bound inference from location-flexible training.
