Grid Constraints Emerge as Primary Bottleneck Despite Renewable Acceleration
Renewables are meeting 90% of demand growth and overtaking coal by 2026, yet grid modernization lags dangerously behind electrification needs. Data center demand surging 17% to 2026 compounds pressure on aging infrastructure already strained by climate events.
Infrastructure bottlenecks could constrain the energy transition's pace and reliability, creating investment opportunities and security risks simultaneously.
