AI Infrastructure & Power

Power is the new bottleneck in AI. The infrastructure stack is being rebuilt from first principles.

What It Is

AI infrastructure and power encompasses the compute clusters, data centers, network fabrics, cooling systems, and energy sourcing that make large-scale AI possible. As AI workloads have grown, power has emerged as the binding constraint — new data centers require far more electricity than the grid can easily supply, and the entire compute stack is being redesigned around energy efficiency, density, and reliability.

This trend covers the full stack: GPU and accelerator hardware, rack-scale systems, interconnects, cooling and power distribution, and the energy deals and generation strategies that hyperscalers are pursuing to keep AI factories online.
