A mental model for understanding whats happening in energy
Really nice post!
What is the potential of reconductoring, how much of the demand could be solved by, say, doubling the capacity of major existing interconnects?
Gridlab has a nice study on reconductoring potential(https://www.2035report.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/GridLab_2035-Reconductoring-Technical-Report.pdf) for the entire grid. Its a bit more complicated to ask how data center demand could be solved by reconductoring, because the siting of the demand is contingent on the supply side
