Artificial intelligence is transforming our economy—and creating unprecedented demand for electricity, data centers, and infrastructure.
But what does that mean for communities already struggling with high energy costs?
As AI and data centers drive new electricity demand, we have an opportunity to ask a critical question: Can we build the infrastructure powering the AI economy in a way that advances clean energy, energy affordability, environmental justice, and economic opportunity?
Join GRID Alternatives and Okta during NYC Climate Week for a timely conversation bringing together leaders from clean energy, technology, philanthropy, and community engagement.
The panel will explore what responsible and sustainable AI looks like beyond the technology itself—including how we power it, who pays for it, who benefits from it, and how we can ensure the communities most affected by energy burden and climate change share in the opportunities created by this next wave of infrastructure investment.
GRID Alternatives is a national nonprofit organization working to make clean energy accessible to communities that have historically been left out of the clean energy transition. Through community partnerships, workforce development, and hands-on clean energy projects, GRID works to ensure that the benefits of the clean energy economy reach the
people and communities that need them most.
