This is the way

Michael E. Webber (@MichaelEWebber)

I completely understand why grid operators want datacenters to operate flexibly.

BUT....their use of each MWh is very valuable (well, at least I hope it's valuable someday).

So shouldn't we be looking for flexibility from less-valuable uses of electricity (e.g. things that are easy to schedule, so as water treatment, water heating, EV charging, etc.)?
