Reuters reports that electricity bills in parts of PJM Interconnection's 13-state territory could rise by more than 20% as the grid struggles to keep pace with the energy demands of AI and data centers. The largest power grid in the United States is facing increasing strain as these facilities consume power at a rate faster than new energy infrastructure can be built. This imbalance threatens to lead to higher costs for consumers across the region.
