Utilities Must Reinvent Themselves to Harness the AI-Driven Data Era Serving surging data center power consumption could require more than $2 trillion in new energy generation resources worldwide, according to Bain analysis. US energy demand could outstrip supply within the next few years; meeting demand would require utilities to boost annual generation by up to 26% by 2028. Big investments in data center projects come with risks, but there’s also risk in missing out on the growth opportunity. Leading utilities are developing feasible resource plans that protect existing customers while working to make their organizations nimbler and more collaborative. Facing potentially overwhelming demand from data centers, US utilities are grappling with a challenge few executives anticipated: After years of navigating flat or shrinking demand, many organizations have forgotten what it takes to grow. What’s more, they’re finding that capitalizing on this new opportunity will require a rapid, unprecedented transformation of their operating and business models. For nearly two decades, efficiency and operational nimbleness were paramount while US electricity demand plateaued as a result of advances in energy efficiency and distributed generation offsetting economic growth. But the era of stagnant demand is over. The late 2022 breakthrough in generative AI and the ensuing data center boom blindsided utilities just as demand was also rising because of repatriated manufacturing, industrial policy, and vehicle electrification. Now, US utilities are bracing for demand to outstrip supply during the next few years, with data centers accounting for the bulk of the increase (see Figures 1 and 2). Supply, both in generation and transmission, will take years to catch up under all but the most conservative scenarios. By 2028, utilities would need to increase annual energy generation by between 7% and 26% above the 2023 total to meet projected demand. That’s far beyond the largest five-year generation boost of about 5% that US utilities achieved from 2005 through 2023. BACK TO PROJECTS 1/4

Data economy A stream of disruptive events is reshaping the business environment through eight major trends, ranging from slower growth of financial capital to more activist governments. The effects of these trends will be uneven across markets and industries, raising the value of capabilities around future sensing. For most companies, navigating the new landscape will require increased flexibility, along with changes in strategy, financing, and talent. As disruptions and crises have piled up in recent years, business leaders might be forgiven for wondering, “Are we done yet?” Between Covid-19, inflation, political polarization, the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, and recession fears across many countries, the macro environment is more uncertain than it has been for decades. Worse, traditional economic indicators seem to have lost their predictive power. Yet it is worth recalling that while previous eras with similar disruptions, such as the 1970s, were unsettling to live through, they ushered in some remarkable business success stories. In the face of even more intense turbulence and uncertainty, a new round of major business gains will hinge on companies understanding how their world is changing and how they must adapt. Shudders from a confluence of structural changes Our new world will be shaped by both structural and cyclical changes in the macro environment and in business. The structural forces are well known but underappreciated in the magnitude of their combined effects. Consider changes in technology, which are occurring across a range of areas at an exponential rate. The usage and computational power of generative AI is growing even more rapidly than the capabilities of microprocessors under the longstanding rule of Moore’s Law. While technology advances, so does the buildup of carbon and climate stress. Fortunately, carbon emissions have plateaued and even started to decline in developed nations. However, the demands of transitioning away from carbon while meeting the world’s growing energy needs will continue to stretch natural resources, resulting in more volatile markets and contributing to domestic and global tensions. Financial markets, too, face profound change as debt burdens reach levels that historically have proved to be unsustainable. In recent years, low interest rates eased these debt burdens while inflating a broader range of asset bubbles as global financial capital has more than tripled over the past three decades to roughly 10 times global GDP. Now, the current environment, with both higher inflation rates and higher real interest rates that are expected to remain elevated, will likely reverse this dynamic. One big driver of the steady rise in public debt, for instance, has been aging populations in many developed and developing countries. As populations age and shift from net savers to net consumers, global capital formation will slow even as demand for investment increases. Older workers’ share of global jobs will increase by 150 million by 2030 , as overall workforce growth shrinks and goes negative in many markets BACK TO INSIGHTS 1/4

Procurement and Sourcing Procurement costs weigh significantly on the competitiveness of a company, regardless of the industry in which it operates: lack of investment in procurement equates to reduction of value.

Technology Report 2024 In 2024, the technology sector moved firmly into the AI phase of computing. Cloud service providers, enterprises, and technology vendors are spending more on AI than ever, and adoption rates are high. But skeptics are wary of AI’s return on investment. What explains the dissonance? Our work with clients suggests that AI, more than other technology disruptions, generates little value from deployment alone. Creating value with AI requires changes in the working processes of hundreds or thousands of employees. Companies need to conduct business diagnostics, redesign processes, set targets, and manage change as they deploy this technology. But early proof points from our client work are encouraging, showing that generative AI initiatives could be worth up to 20% of EBITDA. This year’s Bain Technology Report examines AI’s sweeping impact on industry structure, enterprise value, data centers, geopolitical trading blocs, software, services, business opportunities, and resource and talent.
