>(...), EV, (...) demand has spiked in the U.S The same is happening in Australia and people don't see the problem. The grid was already not ready for the EV boom, the battery technology still not ready IMHO, Chinese EVs are on the roads like plague despise its massive fire issues. Add the AI datacenters to the mess and you have the perfect storm, the grid is not gonna hold much longer. Countries are realising a little to late to move to better energy solution, the current way is not it. Japan is using the waves to generate clean energy, not lithium and massive turbines.
