Core Insights - The article discusses the challenges and opportunities in the U.S. power supply, particularly in the context of AI and energy demands, highlighting the "impossible triangle" of energy policy, economic growth, and AI needs [5][6]. Group 1: Energy Supply Challenges - The U.S. power grid is aging, with an average establishment time of over 40 years, leading to structural issues and a mismatch between supply and demand [5]. - The Biden administration's goal to eliminate 100GW of fossil fuel power generation by 2030 is threatened by the sudden surge in AI energy demands, creating a dilemma for energy policy [5]. - The U.S. power system lacks the capability for large-scale inter-regional energy distribution, unlike China's "West-to-East Power Transmission" [5]. Group 2: AI Power Export Opportunities - The article outlines three main directions for AI power export to North America by 2026: power sources (gas turbines, SOFC), power grid equipment (transformers, large-scale storage), and energy-saving technologies for data centers (SST) [6][19]. - The demand for gas turbines is expected to grow significantly, with an average annual demand of 80-110GW projected from 2026 to 2030, driven by the need for stable and green energy sources [8][9]. Group 3: Gas Turbine Market Dynamics - The supply side of the gas turbine market faces challenges due to complex production processes and a shortage of skilled labor, with an average training period of 1-2 years for workers [8]. - Major gas turbine manufacturers like Siemens Energy, GE, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries dominate the market, leading to a tight supply situation with orders extending to 2028-2029 [9][10]. Group 4: SOFC and Energy Storage - The demand for SOFC is expected to reach 1.5-2GW by 2026, with a growth rate of over 30-50% annually, driven by major tech companies' procurement needs [14]. - The large-scale storage market in North America is projected to see demand exceed 70-80GWh by 2026, supported by favorable economic returns and declining system costs [17]. Group 5: Data Center Energy Efficiency - SST technology is anticipated to significantly reduce energy consumption and space requirements for data centers, with a projected market space of $25-35 billion by 2027 [19]. - The SST market is expected to see a penetration rate of 15-20% by 2027, with major players including Eaton and emerging domestic manufacturers [19][20].
