Pipeline run for this draft
Generated note
NREL describes this as a 1-page visualization of data centers, transmission, fiber routes and metro areas. It does not show that orange/white dots are PPAs, utility filings, gas approvals or pipeline bookings. https://research-hub.nrel.gov/en/publications/data-center-infrastructure-in-the-united-states-november-2025/ https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/nrel-launches-us-data-center-infrastructure-map/

The US Department of Energy just mapped every data center in America. This is what the AI power grid looks like. The dots are data centers. Yellow = operating. Orange = under construction. White = planned. The lines are high-voltage transmission 735kV, 500kV, 345kV the arteries that move electrons from generators to compute loads. Look at the density along the East Coast, Northern Virginia to the Carolinas. Then look at Texas. Then Northern California. The largest circles on this map represent facilities demanding over 5,000 MW of power. Single campuses pulling more electricity than mid-sized cities. Northern Virginia is so dense the dots overlap. Data centers cluster on transmission corridors. Not because land is cheap because power is available. When the line is full, the next data center goes somewhere else. The grid is the bottleneck. Every orange dot is a power purchase agreement being negotiated right now. Every white dot is a utility commission filing, a gas plant approval, a pipeline capacity booking. The $66.8 bn NextEra-Dominion deal, Meta's 10 new gas plants in Louisiana, the Alaska LNG FID push they all trace back to maps that look like this. AI infrastructure is built in substations, on transmission corridors, and at the end of gas pipelines. Link in the comments, to see my stocks 👇
