A growing energy challenge faces data centers as their power demands surge, but a surprising solution lies in the overlooked potential of residential batteries. Millions of home energy storage systems—often underutilized—could help balance grid fluctuations by feeding excess power back into the system. Industry experts argue that tapping into these distributed resources could ease strain on utilities while reducing costs. The shift toward decentralized energy storage may redefine how data centers and households interact with the electrical grid.
