AI Power and Grid Investment Thesis
The binding constraint on AI is power, not chips. The investable opportunity is in generation, interconnection, and the equipment that connects the two.
Why this is the bottleneck
Compute demand can be deployed in months. Power generation and interconnection take years. That mismatch is durable, and it is being priced into long-duration contracts that did not exist three years ago.
Where I focus
- Behind-the-meter generation adjacent to data centres
- Grid interconnection rights and substation capacity
- Transformers, switchgear, and the equipment supply chain
- Long-duration power purchase agreements
