US Federal regulators on Thursday agreed to let large energy users connect more quickly to the nation's inefficient electric transmission system to accommodate surging demand from power-hungry artificial intelligence (AI) data centres.Energy Secretary Chris Wright had urged the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to act, in an effort to help the United States better compete with China for superiority in the fast-growing AI sector. Tech companies and data centre developers have welcomed the chances for faster connections to the country's power supply.

Trump has attempted to force Big Tech to secure their own power for data centers to prevent costs from trickling down to consumers.

FERC told grid operators to speed up data centre connections to the grid. On the same day, the Trump administration paid $765 million to kill offshore wind leases.

A federal commission ordered grid operators to show how they'll encourage faster connections.

FERC told grid operators to give data centers a fast lane for interconnections, but it failed to address electricity supply shortages.

In a unanimous vote, the commissioners agreed that current regulations are lagging behind as a surge of data centers wait to interconnect.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is pushing grid operators to update rules for connecting massive power users.

FERC's order for grid operators to ease regulatory processes for data centers makes it clear that the next phase of the AI race will be shaped by both electrical and political…

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission stops short of fulfilling the Trump administration’s wishes but puts regional grid operators on a “short leash.”

FERC orders six grid operators to reform interconnection tariffs for large energy users like AI data centers, targeting wait times that currently stretch

The federal government wants more data centers to come online — as long as they do not impact the electricity supply.
