Everywhere you turn these days people are talking about data centers and the enormous amount of electrical power they are expected to demand as artificial intelligence (AI) platforms scale up and become more

Heading into Week 14, here are the target leaders at each position as well as meaningful trends fantasy managers can use.

Hydrogen is becoming increasingly important to the electric power generation industry for several reasons. One is that hydrogen offers a promising pathway to decarbonize the power sector. When used in fuel cells or burned for electricity generation, hydrogen produces only water vapor as a byproduct, making it a zero-emission energy source. This is crucial for meeting global climate change mitigation goals and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from power generation. Hydrogen also provides a potential energy storage solution, which is critical for integrating solar and wind energy into the power grid. These renewable resources are intermittent—sometimes they produce more energy than is needed by the grid, while at other times, they may completely go away. Hydrogen can be produced through electrolysis during periods of excess renewable energy production, then stored and used to generate electricity when needed. This helps address the challenge of matching energy supply with demand. Hydrogen is a flexible and versatile fuel that can be used in fuel cells, gas turbines, or internal combustion engines. It can also be blended with natural gas to accommodate existing equipment limitations. The wide range of options make hydrogen a great backup fuel for microgrids and other systems that require excellent reliability. “We've actually seen quite a bit of interest in that,” Tim Lebrecht, industry manager for Energy Transition and the Chemicals Process Industries with

Steam is used for a wide variety of critical processes across many industrial sectors. For example, the food and beverage industry uses steam for sterilization of food processing equipment; cooking, pasteurization, and sterilization of food products; cleaning and sanitizing production lines; and providing heat for various food preparation processes. Pulp and paper facilities use steam to power paper machines, dry paper and wood products, and provide heat for chemical recovery processes. Metal and mining companies use steam to heat and treat metals, power turbines in mineral processing, clean and prepare ore for further processing, and support various metallurgical processes. Steam is also used in petroleum refining, pharmaceutical manufacturing, textile production, and many other industrial processes.

50Hertz, the transmission system operator (TSO) for eastern Germany, has awarded its Ostwind 4 project to GE Vernova, in consortium with Drydocks World, a DP World company that provides marine and offshore services to the renewable energy sector, among others. The project involves the design, construction, and commissioning of a 2-GW high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) electric transmission system—the first of its kind in the German Baltic Sea—connecting offshore wind farms to the German grid.
