In Episode 330 of The Green Insider, host Mike Nemer sits down with Chris Dorow to explore how AI-driven data center growth is reshaping electricity demand, why battery storage has become a critical tool in ERCOT, and what today’s market signals say about the future of solar, wind, natural gas, and nuclear power. Their conversation covers grid reliability, energy pricing, infrastructure bottlenecks, and the challenge of building enough generation to meet rising demand.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

How AI and data center expansion are driving major load growth forecasts across Texas and the broader power market.
Why battery energy storage systems are playing a bigger role in price stability and evening peak management in ERCOT.
What curtailment, turbine delivery delays, and rising project costs mean for new solar, wind, and natural gas development.
Why a diversified energy mix—including renewables, storage, nuclear, and dispatchable generation—remains essential for reliability.
How energy infrastructure constraints, fuel markets, and geopolitical events could influence natural gas and power prices in the years ahead.
