Overview
About this program
Emerald AI builds software that lets AI data centers act as dispatchable, flexible loads rather than fixed demand. NVIDIA announced a collaboration with the company at CERAWeek in March 2026 to pioneer 'flexible AI factories' as grid assets, and the platform is being deployed at NVIDIA's 96 MW Aurora site in Manassas, Virginia. The approach targets interconnection queues, where accepting curtailment terms can shorten time to power.
