The AI Revolution Needs Efficient Infrastructure
summary
E.ON runs the distribution grid for ~50 million customers and says it connects 1 million PV and wind devices this year, a figure that is set to double; the company packages digital twins for grids and a B2C/B2B platform for PV, EV charging and heat pumps into a product called E.ON One and sells it to other operators. Gen‑AI workloads currently use roughly 10× the energy of typical data centers, so E.ON uses AI to orchestrate milliseconds of load, storage and location decisions under EU privacy and AI Act constraints.
