PJM is running out of room. So is every other grid where data center demand is highest.
Developers are responding with floating server farms, orbital compute, and mines repurposed into hyperscale campuses. Our new whitepaper benchmarks four unconventional data center formats against conventional builds and finds that the ones with the best shot at scale aren't the flashiest. They're the ones engineered to work with the grid and the community around them, not against either.
We also break down a purpose-built underground construction method that works almost anywhere, not just where old mines happen to exist, and score three live U.S. greenfield sites against it using real substation and interconnection data.
