- Interconnection
- Water
- Neutral-atom architecture operates at room temperature using optical tweezers and laser cooling; no dilution refrigerator and no significant process water. Building HVAC only.
The New England (ISO-NE) grid demand right now: 11.8 GW (EIA-930, 2026-09-27 17:00).
County water status: Abnormally dry (D0) in Suffolk County, week of 2026-09-22 (US Drought Monitor). Data centers are large water users for cooling; this is the neutral local water picture.
