The rapid expansion of AI data centers, cryptocurrency mining operations, and hydrogen production facilities is creating unprecedented electricity demand on power grids. These large, fast-growing loads pose new challenges for planning, operations, and reliability—prompting heightened attention from utilities, regulators, OEMs, and grid operators. This all-day workshop will bring together leading experts from industry, government, and academia to examine the emerging implications of large-load integration and discuss pathways to maintain a stable and resilient grid. The event is open to the Penn State community and invited external partners, and is designed to foster meaningful dialogue among the stakeholders shaping the future of power systems.
