Abstract
Electric load in the US is surging, and it is expected to continue to grow at an exponential rate and require utility investment in new electric infrastructure. What is driving this growth? Several major energy trends, including increased industrial reshoring, data centers, and electrification of buildings and transportation. The result is rapid energy demand growth requiring the siting of new and expanded electric infrastructure.
