Why we can’t just wait for AI to solve the energy transition
AI is often pitched as the fix for grid strain. The real bottleneck is physical infrastructure that is generations behind what the energy transition needs.
IONATE is a technology company that builds the hardware-software backbone for smart grids and data centers. Its Hybrid Intelligent Transformers are a new building block that enable missing data and dynamic power flow control.
These devices replace traditional transformers and are designed for flexibility, resilience, and performance in electricity distribution. Coupled with IONATE's AI-enabled software, a network of this technology reduces energy losses, supports the integration of renewable energy sources, enhances power quality, increases the capacity of existing infrastructure, and unlocks real-time coordination for a true smart grid.
