Why do co-located loads matter?

When large electricity users, such as data centers, connect directly to power generators, it can change how electricity flows through the system. Among other things, the generator may send less electricity to the grid once the co-located load is in place. Generally, these arrangements may influence grid planning, costs, and how future electricity demand is forecasted.

As electricity demand grows, understanding how different types of loads connect to the system will help regulators, grid operators, and communities plan for reliable and affordable service.
