Behind every app, stream, and AI tool is a data center — and they’re consuming more energy than ever. For state and local energy offices, this creates a dual challenge: keeping the grid reliable today while preparing for a future with higher energy demands
Data centers account for 2% of global electricity use and could double by 2035. In the U.S., hyperscale centers already use as much power as small cities. When these facilities cluster together, they stress local grids and make it harder for agencies to meet climate and reliability goals.
State energy offices need smarter tools to navigate this new reality.
Technology can help agencies turn a complex challenge into a manageable opportunity. For example:
Software works best when paired with skilled professionals. That’s why Everblue partners with state agencies to combine innovative software solutions with workforce training — ensuring that energy-smart practices aren’t just adopted, but sustained.
