It points to more than 24 GW already in advanced construction at 40 campuses for 2027 delivery. For people who build, power and equip these sites, the forecast reads as another year of long waits for transformers, switchgear and crews.
The solver does the math and the agent only drives it: it sets up cases, runs power flow and contingency checks, and drafts the report. Its skills pack will not run advanced studies until the base case solves.
For transmission planners and interconnection engineers: hand the case setup and the write-up to an agent and keep the engineering sign-off.
Nuclear already uses AI; the gap is proof. One operator built an AI observation tool into a required process and saw it used fleetwide, while an optional AI review tool got uneven use.
Google Research open-sourced Harness², which lets AI agents test and improve their own prompts, tools, memory and workflows while the model stays the same. For operations teams, that points to agents that get better at a repeat job without a model swap.
