Nvidia, Emerald AI Partner with Power Companies on New AI Factories

William Attardi on March 24, 2026

Nvidia and Emerald AI said they would work with several power producers to develop a new class of AI factories, designed to connect to energy grids faster and support power systems as surging demand for artificial intelligence strains electricity infrastructure. The facilities will operate as what the companies on Monday called flexible energy assets, supporting power grids by modulating consumption and leveraging on-site generation and storage. Participating power companies include AES, Constellation, Invenergy, NextEra Energy, Nscale Energy & Power, and Vistra. Nvidia, Emerald AI Partner With Power Companies on New AI Factories – WSJ

Interesting: The Three Pillars of Independence of an Organization

The 3 Pillars of Independence most commonly refers to a framework from the UK voluntary sector (specifically promoted by organizations like Bond and the Directory of Social Change). It is a toolkit for assessing and maintaining the independence of charities, NGOs, or civil society organizations.

The Three Pillars are:

  1. Independent of Party Politics – The organization (or regulator) must remain free from bias or influence by any political party or the government of the day. Decisions should be impartial, not favoring one political side.
  2. Independent of Populism – It should not be swayed by popular public opinion, media-driven campaigns, or transient public pressure, especially on controversial or unpopular causes.
  3. Independent of the Press – Freedom from media influence or pressure, ensuring decisions are based on evidence and law rather than headlines or public narratives.

This toolkit was created to monitor potential political encroachment on charitable regulation and to ensure charities can operate without undue external interference.
