Power, Produce, Compute

The EnergiAcres model in one piece: co-locate on-site power, AI compute, and greenhouses so America's electricity, compute, and food shortfalls are solved together, not separately.

Behind the Meter

Why building your own generation next to your own load is the fastest way to build now — and how it can relieve the local grid instead of straining it.

The 30-Year Asset in a 3-Year Industry

The financing case: AI models and chips churn, but the land, power, and community consent beneath them last decades. Underwrite the node, not the tenant.

Nothing Leaves the Fence Line

A design discipline, not a slogan: the loops that turn a data center's waste streams into a campus's yields — each stated with the honesty it requires.

Why Ohio

Why Ohio is a first-principles development state for AI infrastructure — and why the old land-first playbook has to be inverted to powered land and community posture first.

The Jobs the Other Two Can't Make

A data center employs few; a power plant fewer. The greenhouse is what turns an industrial load into a local economy — and what makes the community bargain real.

What the Dutch Figured Out

The circular model isn't theoretical — the Netherlands already proved it at national scale. What they figured out, and why America is the place to build it next.

Build It in Circles

A manifesto: the AI age is making a shape decision right now — boxes or circles. Why the circle isn't the virtuous choice that costs you, but the intelligent one that pays.

The Acre and the Algorithm

A founder's essay on why AI's hardest problem is physical, not digital — and how a farmer's systems thinking points to infrastructure that gives back.

The Cloud Is Physical. Its Next Operating System Will Be Too.

EnergiAcres' category thesis: the cloud is physical, the data center is the wrong unit of design, and industrial AI will organize reality — not files.

AI Must Earn Its Place on the American Acre

A sixth-generation Ohio farmer's case for AI infrastructure that pays its own way, reuses its heat, and leaves the town it lands in stronger.

Like the discovery of fire: Can Florida handle AI’s massive energy demand?

Tampa Bay 28 explores whether Florida’s grid can keep up with the explosive energy demands of AI infrastructure.

Powering AI and Growing Food: How EnergiAcres is Rewriting the Energy Playbook

Shawn Cutter joins Carrie Charles on Broadstaff’s Let’s Get Digital to discuss how EnergiAcres pairs AI infrastructure with sustainable agriculture.

A hidden solution to Ohio’s data center dilemma

Tim Ryan and Shawn Cutter make the case for pairing data centers with agriculture in The Plain Dealer.

Publication

Rainwater could help satisfy AI’s water demands

Justin Talbot Zorn and Bettina Warburg explore how rainwater harvesting can address data centers’ growing water needs in Scientific American.

Publication

Data centers use massive energy and water. Here’s how to build them better

Fast Company explores the next generation of sustainable data center design.

Publication

America Should Harvest a Trillion Gallons of Rainwater

Justin Talbot Zorn argues in TIME that rainwater harvesting is an ancient solution to a modern infrastructure crisis.

Publication

Ohio can solve the electric grid’s biggest problem, and grow food while doing it

How behind-the-meter generation and co-located agriculture can ease grid congestion.

Publication

Data centers can stack sustainability, energy innovations

Utility Dive covers the stacking strategy that combines renewables, gas, and agriculture.
