Summary of Episode #20:
Heavy Power Users, such as AI Data Centers or Hydrogen Electrolyzers, swing their load by tens or hundreds of megawatts in a second on their own control logic, without any warning or visibility for the Power Grid Operator, who can't see the ramp until it's already stressing the system.
Ravi and JAM speak with Dlzar Al Kez, a Researcher on Net Zero Infrastructure at the University of Manchester.
