While many energy insiders remain focused on the staggering demand coming from AI and data centers, a much larger and far-reaching shift is happening. We are entering what Energy Impact Partners’ head of research Andy Lubershane calls the “electric supercycle” — a series of interlocking technological flywheels that are accelerating the clean energy transition faster than many may realize.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Andy to map out the interconnected nature of the “electric stack.” They unpack how early investments in solar and EVs are scaling up technologies that are now feeding back into grid infrastructure, and look ahead to the massive electricity demands of the coming robotics and defense industry boom. They also consider the pressing question of the ultimate rate limiters for meeting this demand.
Shayle and Andy discuss topics like:
- The power grid supply crunch
- Why electricity prices have tracked inflation so far but may surge past it when equipment costs hit retail customer bills
- The four pillars of the electroindustrial tech stack: Solar PV, lithium-ion batteries, EVs, and wide-bandgap power electronics
- How a “robo-butler” load profile compares to other household appliances
- How the defense industry could catalyze climate tech, especially batteries
- Why physical transmission corridors remain the top rate limiter for the energy transition

Shayle Kann: I’m Shayle Kann. I lead the early stage venture strategy at Energy Impact Partners. Welcome to Catalyst. So the electric supercycle, remember that term? It’s what we at EIP have started to use to describe the unprecedented times that we’re in right now in the power sector and why I think most people still haven’t actually woken up to just how dramatic this next phase of the market is going to be. Anyway, Andy Lubershane, if you’re a regular listener, you know him, you love him. He’s my partner and our head of research at EIP and he wrote the first of what I think will be a bunch of pieces on the electric supercycle a couple weeks ago. This one was focused on the hidden feedback loops within electrotech or the electric stack or whatever you want to call it that compound and drive more and more momentum in this space. We ran through it. Andy’s coming up after the break.
Andy, welcome back.
Andy Lubershane: Thank you, Shayle. This is my first Catalyst video edition. So it’s a whole new world for me in podcasting.
Shayle Kann: You’re looking good. Okay. So I think everybody who’s listening to this probably knows that there’s lots of electricity, demand growth, et cetera, et cetera. But I think we should start by talking through some of the ways that’s manifesting. If you’re trying to build new electricity generation or move electricity right now, what does it look like to you?
Andy Lubershane: I mean, it’s not just everybody that listens to this podcast. I think everybody in the world now, anyone who’s paying attention to the economy in almost any way is familiar with the impacts of the AI boom on the energy sector and specifically the power sector and how many bottlenecks there are basically. I mean, that’s something you and I have been talking about for the past three years basically is this idea of the electricity gauntlet, which is sort of the narrow path that the power sector, the electricity business and anyone in it has to walk between this kind of wall of surging demand on one side and bottlenecks on supply, which are really popping up at every level of the system, I think from generation to transmission distribution all the way on down. And that’s the state we’re in today. We’ve been there, I think, for about 18 months.
And so if you are anyone in the market right now that can deliver some piece of equipment to alleviate those bottlenecks at any level of the system, you’re feeling pretty good right now.
Shayle Kann: Yeah. Let’s talk through briefly at least a couple of those things that you can sell to potentially alleviate and what’s happening in those markets. We’ve talked before on this podcast a little bit about gas turbines, but what’s the state of the gas turbine supply chain? What’s the state of the power grid equipment supply chain, the renewable supply chain?This is pretty broad at this point.
Andy Lubershane: Yeah. I mean, I think overall it’s pretty similar dynamics in all of these for each of these pieces of equipment, which is that anything you want to order today is probably going to take three plus years in the case of gas turbines, probably more like five years to be able to get your hands on. Anything you order today, whether it’s a turbine or a transformer or just the aluminum or copper conductor or switch gear, like any of those common building blocks of the grid is going to probably cost two to three times as much as it did five years ago. We saw these increases in prices for just about everything in the power grid supply chain during COVID. And I think there was an expectation that after a few years, those supply chain crunches would alleviate just like many of the other bottlenecks in global supply chains we saw throughout the economy, but that hasn’t happened because demand has continued to surge so much.
So prices have really remained elevated well above inflation for all that stuff since the pandemic. And so yeah, that’s the basic story is like things are taking three to five years to potentially deliver and costing two to three times as much as they used to.
Shayle Kann: And I think one thing people don’t think about as much as they should is that the time lag between those price increases for equipment and then what retail customers see. Affordability has become the name of the game. It’s the word that’s being used in every circle in the electricity world. It has bled out into the broader political body. We see this now being an issue in elections and so on. And yet actually it still hasn’t really hit yet for the most part because it takes some time. There’s a lag between when these prices of things increase and then the effect on retail rates. So in some ways, I think it’s good that affordability has become a big issue now because we’re looking out into the future where the broad overarching trend is probably that it’s going to get worse before it gets better.
Andy Lubershane: Yeah, it’s frightening. I completely agree with you. The worst is kind of yet to come because so far actually the retail electricity price increases that we’ve seen in the past five years have actually tracked pretty much with inflation overall. It’s a little different in different rate classes and depends where you are in the country, of course, there’s a lot of heterogeneity, but on average across the United States, actually electricity prices have risen pretty much in line with inflation. So in nominal terms, they’ve gone up quite a bit because everything has gotten more expensive, but in real terms they really haven’t yet. And I have a very high degree of confidence that moving forward, because as you said, all this stuff is leading indicators, prices are going to rise faster than inflation overall. And because electricity is sort of a foundational good for the economy, there’ll actually be a feedback loop or they’re a driver of inflation too.
So yeah, I think the affordability dialogue and the political salience of affordability is sadly just getting started.
Shayle Kann: Okay. So you might listen to what we’ve just been talking about and think that actually this is like a bearish statement about the future of electricity because yes, we have all this new demand, but it has resulted in supply chains getting gummed up and then more importantly in prices rising and more to come at the retail level. And yet I think the thing that you and I are here to talk about mostly is kind of the opposite, which is we think that there is a super cycle that we are in the early stages of. And so despite all the challenges in getting new electricity supply online, in getting that delivered to customers and in keeping rates low, I think both you and I, having spent a bunch of time on this recently, are increasingly bullish on the future of electricity. So start by making the case at the high level.
Andy Lubershane: Yeah. I feel like for the past three plus years, I’ve often been sort of the herald of doom in a lot of rooms with colleagues and friends in the power sector sort of describing the state of affairs, which has continued to get more challenging over time. But in many ways, that’s because we’re at the tightest pinch point in this gauntlet and that is of course driven by the just extraordinary boom in demand from data centers that is happening right now and I’m pretty confident is going to continue to be happening for the next three to five years. And honestly, who knows after that. But I think the reason to be bullish is that I don’t think that this phenomenon is only caused by the data center boom and the supply crunches that are occurring because of it. I think that this really is a generational phenomenon of the growing importance of electricity as a form of energy in society, which is being caused by data centers by electrification of transport, electrification of heating, by all kinds of other new sort of precision manufacturing, which by and large is driven by electrical processes these days.
And while data centers, I think rightly so, get a lot of the attention right now because they are by far the biggest source of new demand in the system, I think they’re the least certain form of demand in my opinion when you think five, 10, 15 years out and all of these other forms of growing electricity demand around the world, largely from electrification, I think have a lot more sort of robust, very clear secular tailwinds over that period. And so I remain very confident in the sort of steady march forward of electricity demand for really decades to come well beyond the data center driven crunch that we’re in right now. So that’s one reason I think to be excited about it. And the other is because of technology and supply chains, which I think are increasingly creating flywheels in favor of more electrification, even though at the moment things feel pretty rough for the power system supply chain.
Shayle Kann: Yeah. I want to talk about these flywheels because I think these are what are most underappreciated. But on the first point, I periodically remind people that in Western countries in the United States, for example, electricity currently accounts for something like 20% of final energy demand. So just in terms of stealing market share, this was the trajectory we were already on prior to AI showing up, which is electrifying a bunch of things as you said, passenger transportation in particular and then heavy duty transportation and heating and some industrial processes and so on. And so that was like a slower admittedly, but ongoing trend that looked like it was going to have a couple of decades of legs in it. And then on top of that, AI shows up and supercharges demand. And in some ways that creates a challenge for all the other types of electrification.
It’s sucking all the oxygen out of the room. If you’re trying to do electrified industrial processes, good luck finding a site that can host 100 megawatts of power that isn’t already taken by a data center developer. But on the other hand, it also comes with a flood of money that is starting to be directed toward infrastructure upgrades that are ultimately going to benefit other things as well. And so it’s going to take some time and this is going to be this cyclical situation where sometimes it feels like the only thing that matters is AI and other times it’s going to be like AI is the catalyst that enables electrification of other things, but it is worth remembering that we have 80% of final energy demand still to eat up as a share for electricity setting aside the net new growth that comes from AI.
Andy Lubershane: On balance in the near term, this AI demand-driven crunch and price increases represent a challenge for electrification, but we’ve always thought that this was going to be the project of decades. There’s going to be bumps in the road along the way. There’s going to be a lot of regional differences in terms of where electricity demand growth is happening, where electricity is able to steal market share away from the direct combustion of fossil fuels. But I thought actually this was an interesting data point. The IEA recently came out with some data on global electricity demand growth. And it turns out that last year in 2025 from a global standpoint, there was almost exactly as much electricity demand growth around the world from electric vehicles as there were from data centers. It’s probably not going to be the case in 2026, 2027, but it’s worth pointing out that having a purely US focused perspective anchors you a little more on data centers than looking at things from a global standpoint.
Shayle Kann: Right. Okay. Well, let’s move on to the feedback loops bit, because I think the reason, yes, there’s this existing trend and AI is going to accelerate it and so on. But I think the more interesting thing here is what you and I have been thinking through in terms of the interconnected nature of some of the technologies that are being driven in different sectors, but all tied to, people call it the electric stack or electrotech or whatever. But let’s talk through a couple of these feedback loops. Give me one to start.
Andy Lubershane: I think the core feedback loop at the center of all of this is really between these four building blocks in the electroindustrial tech stack, which are historically, and I think for a long time to come will remain solar photovoltaics, batteries, predominantly lithium ion batteries at this point. There may be some other branches off that family tree, electric vehicles and associated componentry predominantly electric motors and then power electronics, which are sort of the lesser known fourth leg of the stool because they’re less visible to the common person but are sort of the connective tissue between all of that stuff. And the feedback loops, there are multiple sort of feedback loops within that system. For example, as you deploy more solar into power systems around the world, the value of energy storage increases. And so the ability to deploy batteries at grid scale cost effectively to make use of some amount of excess solar energy during a few hours of the day and then use that to support peak capacity during a few hours of the day where when you have a deficit becomes more valuable and that creates a new market for batteries.
Similarly, electric vehicles, which I really think are the keystone species of this ecosystem, mainly because there’s just so many unit sales of electric vehicles. So as that market ramped up, it created a lot more mass manufacturing demand and capacity for all of this stuff. Electric vehicles have obviously had this tremendous impact on batteries, but electric vehicles themselves benefited from early investments from the solar industry in power electronics in wideband gap semiconductor materials, which enable higher voltage, higher frequency switching, which is really important for allowing a battery to run the traction motors on a vehicle and to do high powered fast charging. So you can start to see how all of this stuff connects at a supply chain level and is sort of compounding on itself over time.
Shayle Kann: Yeah. The power electronics one is interesting because as you said, early investments from the solar industry and wide band gap, semiconductors, EVs really scale that stuff up. EVs are where silicon carbide reaches its glory. And then now a number of companies, hair and power included, which we’re investors in and Drew was on this podcast a while ago talking about it, now taking that technology that was scaled up in EVs and then bringing it back to the grid to use for solar inverters or to use for transformer replacements on the grid and so on. So you’ve got this circular nature of one portion of the electric stack; invest early in a new technology, it’s scaled up by another one and then it comes back to that first one ultimately. And because there’s this common need to move transport, change the voltage of power, a bunch of the things in the electric stack are all common across different parts of that ecosystem, you get this compounding effect.
Andy Lubershane: Right. And then it all sort of comes back to electricity demand growth in the end. Electric vehicles are this vector for electricity demand growth, which creates more need to invest in grid infrastructure and that need to invest in grid infrastructure presents an opportunity for power grid operators to experiment with new technology, kind of creates the necessity for them to look to something like solid state power electronics at grid scale to interconnect solar, to interconnect high electric vehicle charging, to interconnect high voltage data centers. And so you’re sort of simultaneously seeing compounding of need and investment in supply and technology improvement at the same time, which is at the core of these flywheels. And one of the reasons to believe this is a positive super cycle over time and not just something that is going to continuously create bottlenecks and constraints throughout the system for decades to come.
Shayle Kann: Another one that I’m just thinking about on the spot is like microgrid controllers to an extent because the early investment in microgrid controllers and the whole suite of things that are required to manage a mini grid or multiple assets at a single site, that has been ongoing for a decade plus. You have off-grid situations, you have other campus microgrids that have been developed and so on. And then increasingly with heterogeneous sources of power and storage. So batteries got included in microgrids at some point. You have usually generation, maybe some mix of solar and a gas turbine or whatever it might be and that’s gotten more and more sophisticated. And then now you have data centers that want to see a bunch of behind the meter resources get connected and orchestrated in concert and then get ultimately connected to the grid because usually what’s happening is that if the data center is operating off grid, it’s temporary.
It’s a bridge power situation. Eventually they’re going to get connected to the grid. Now you need to coordinate all those onsite resources that you have with the grid as well. And I feel like that early investment in how to manage a microgrid at a much smaller scale, admittedly, there weren’t many gigawatt scale microgrids historically, but scale up what people were doing at hospitals and campuses and that’s kind of what people are starting to think about doing at data centers now.
Andy Lubershane: Right. You took an early niche, a little bit of initial investment to create the basic technology. Data centers are taking it to 11, they’re taking it to a thousand to gigawatt scale and actually you could see the cycle being completed at EV charging hubs, especially as we see more need for autonomous vehicle charging hubs, which I think is yet another one of the feedback loops in this cycle. But as you see the need for charging depots at megawatt scale, maybe 10 megawatt scale, 20 megawatt scale, the same expertise in islandable large scale power systems that are grid connected but can take themselves offline, can provide peak capacity to the grid, can ensure that they’re never drawing beyond a certain amount of capacity from the grid. That same kind of technology I think will be deployed at EV charging depots as they scale up as well and probably will have, by the way, batteries on site.
If they are highway based charging depots, they might even be interconnected with a solar project that is nearby. So again, you can see these four building blocks coming together in more and more ways over time
Shayle Kann: All right. So you mentioned autonomous vehicles. We should talk about autonomous vehicles themselves and the way that they compound growth for electricity. I mean, people I think probably understand that autonomous vehicles are almost certainly endemically electric vehicles. It makes more sense for them to be electric vehicles and the proof is in the pudding. All of the autonomous vehicles on the road today are electric vehicles. That is true of all the Waymos that is obviously true of the Tesla Robotaxis. The extent that we have them, they are electric, but also that’s not coincidental. It makes more sense. And so there’s this obvious feedback loop of, autonomy breeds electrification, which accelerates the existing vehicle electrification trend, but I think we could also extend that a little bit out more broadly beyond just autonomous vehicles into the wider world of robotics.
Andy Lubershane: Right. Physical AI, autonomy of all kinds of physical systems, pretty much anything you want to create out there today that’s going to be a bunch of GPUs that are disconnected from any kind of cloud-based computing because they have to do tasks in real time. They are probably going to run on electricity because GPUs run on power and it’s going to be inefficient to have a lawnmower engine on a robot or whatever system you have out there that’s intended to be operating with very, very low latency in an autonomous fashion. That’s true of autonomous vehicles. There are supercomputers on wheels. That’s true of any robotic system out there in the world today. So robots are probably going to run on batteries if they’re mobile robots. So that’s yet another source of demand for lots of power dense batteries. They’re going to run on power electronics doing conversions from direct current battery power to AC power to run a bunch of motors because robots are also a bunch of collection of high performance, high power density, high efficiency motors.
So they’re yet another type of equipment that is basically running on this same fundamental tech stack, these same fundamental building blocks and they’re also another source of power demand. So I did some kind of back of the envelope calculations just for fun on humanoid robots. Now, I personally am not crazy bullish on humanoids as the ultimate best form factor for robots in a lot of applications. But as you and I have talked about a few times, one application where humanoids might make sense is households because a household robot is going to be doing a bunch of different tasks, most likely the kind of tasks that a person does today and the form factor has to fit into a household setting, which is built for people and you’re not going to retrofit your house to fit in some sort of new exotic robotic form factor. So anyway, just consider a humanoid or something like a humanoid, but in particular, consider the power consumption needs of a humanoid robot.
And it turns out that if you were to extrapolate from the humanoids that are being built today and you were to run one for five or six hours a day doing various types of tasks around your home and your garden, the theoretical robo butler that would consume roughly three to four times as much electricity per year as your typical refrigerator does today. So your humanoid robot would instantly become the biggest power consuming appliance in the home, save for your HVAC system. It would be maybe a fifth of what a typical electric vehicle driver would be consuming doing, I don’t know, 10,000 miles a year or something like that. So we see this simultaneously a new vector of demand for all these components and a new vector of demand for electricity supply at the same time.
Shayle Kann: I had been obviously curious about that question of how much electricity load would a really bullish view on robotics add and my takeaway on that one on the humanoids is like, that’s meaningful, but it’s not enormous. It’s not a scary number. If you’re three to four times in a refrigerator and in aggregate, if really everybody ends up with one of these robo-butlers, that adds up, but it’s not enormous. The thing I wonder about is industrial robotics where you’re going to have some systems that are much higher power potentially and predicting the number of those systems is kind of difficult. But I could imagine that in aggregate load terms for the grid, you end up with much more demand coming from industrial robotics than humanoids in the home.
Andy Lubershane: And I would say industrial robotics combined with industrial electrification in general, because again, a lot of the more advanced manufacturing processes out there, high precision manufacturing, making semiconductors, for example, are already highly electrified processes because electricity is just sort of the form factor of energy that gets you the kind of precision that you need to run these sorts of things. So I’ve seen a large semiconductor fabrication facility, a large chip fab could be tens of megawatts to up to a hundred megawatts of power demand potentially. I think that’s sort of the order of magnitude that we’re talking about. So yeah, I think advanced manufacturing, which includes a bunch of robotics within the facility and other processes that are electrically driven.
The thing about AI driven demand today and data center demand is like pretty much no matter what, anything you consider that’s another vector of power demand growth, it’s not going to compare with data centers. Data centers are just so big that they block out the sun, but all this stuff on the margins over time compounds, I think. And the other thing, as we were talking about at the beginning of the pod here is I have very high conviction in all these other sources of electricity demand growth, not just today, but for the next 10, 20, 30, 40 years. Data center demand growth may continue to be robust over that time period, in which case we’ve got a whole other world of considerations on our hands, but I’m much less certain in it beyond the next say five-year time period.
Shayle Kann: Yeah. And then also the thing that you said about what electric vehicles did for power electronics in particular, they scaled up by you sell a large number of units and that really got the silicon carbide supply chain and so on. Robots could do a similar thing. Robots also could be high volume units depending on the type and robots need, as you said, power dense batteries. So you could see a lot more investment in a certain type of battery that we’re not seeing as much on the grid. They need motors, they need actuators. There’s all this other stuff that comes with a scale up of the robotic supply chain, much of which then could apply back into the electric supply chain in other places too. So there’s like another flywheel that robotics could kick off, I think, if you really believe that that’s coming quickly, which I think I do actually, not necessarily in humanoids necessarily, but broadly.
Andy Lubershane: Well, there’s one robotic form factor that already we know is coming really quickly and being manufactured in the hundreds of millions probably getting towards the billions already, which is drones, quad copter drones, which now as everyone knows, feature prominently in defense and in warfare. And defense historically has been a sector that has a high willingness to pay for performance and willing to pay a lot for marginal improvements and performance. So drones are one area we could see, I think, a willingness to pay for further innovation in technology for batteries, for higher density power electronics, which then again could have spillover effects for electric vehicles and for all the other stuff we’ve been talking about.
Shayle Kann: Yeah. As you know, we have been talking with our mutual colleague, Greg Thiel, about the increasing ambitions of the federal government initially through ARPE and then now through the DOD to find and discover and commercialize an extremely dense battery. So there was an ARPA-E program a couple years ago that was called 1K that was looking for a thousand watt hour per kilogram battery, which would be, what is that, like 3x the best on the market today. Game changer. Yeah. But I just saw recently there’s a DOD initiative now to try to find a 2,000 watt hour per kilogram battery. And again, these are predominantly, I think because of drones, that’s the main reason you want that. But if you had a 2,000 watt hour per kilogram battery and then you applied that into, for example, heavy duty transportation, complete game changer. So if that happens –
Andy Lubershane: And the question is always like, who’s going to pay for the first thousand and then how are you going to scale it up to the hundreds of millions? And drones are one way you could see that happen. The military will pay for coming down the cost curve because it’s so valuable to have that increase in power density in a drone as a weapon. And then once it’s proven out, you could see that the unit volume is so high that it’s worth investing in mass manufacturing. So that’s one pathway you could see some alternative battery technology gain traction when it probably would never do so in the electric vehicle market where honestly lithium ion batteries we have today are kind of good enough from a range standpoint. So it would be cool to have a thousand watt hour per kilogram battery, but not at four times the price. I think that would not get traction in the EV industry nearly as quickly as in defense.
Shayle Kann: Right. Right. Okay. So to wrap this all up, I mean, we are still in the gauntlet. And in fact, the gauntlet may have become narrower than it was a couple of years ago. And so I guess if you had to bet on what will be the rate limiter, what’s the thing that’s going to be the hardest to scale up? If the whole premise here is that there’s all these feedback loops, all these different things that are all pointing in basically the same direction, which is increasing demand for electricity over the next decade or something like that. What’s going to stop the market from meeting all of that demand? There are a bunch of possibilities here, so you have to pick one.
Andy Lubershane: Yeah. So broadly speaking, I think my view is it’s the grid. The grid is the rate limiter, but that’s too big-picture because the grid is a big system with lots of individual facets. I think, and I’ve believed this for a long time, that within the grid, the thing that is the biggest rate limiter is electric transmission because I have not seen a technology solution that really changes the game for the amount of investment in transmission expansion that we need and specifically just new transmission lines, new transmission corridors that we need in most regions of the world. And when you’re building a new big transmission line across a long distance and it’s high voltage and it’s big infrastructure, big towering structures, you bump up against this sort of societal willingness to pay, willingness to tolerate new infrastructure, you bump up against NIMBYism for which we have not yet found a technology solution.
And so yeah, that’s to me the long pole in the tent is electric transmission. And I think we’ve talked a lot before on an office pod. I know you’ve had other guests talking about what that means for where some of this new power demand goes. I mean, I’m still hopeful actually that we see some AI data center growth go off-grid, not powered entirely by off-grid gas as some projects have been so far, but by a hybrid of solar and gas and batteries, which I think could make a whole lot of sense in some places. And if this data center boom continues for longer than the next three to five years, if it’s really a robust trend that is going to be decade plus for the foreseeable future, then I don’t see any other option besides going to something like large-scale off-grid connected solutions.
Shayle Kann: All right. That’s a good way to wrap it. Off-grid. Every conversation ends with, “Well, why don’t we just go off-grid?” So why should this be any different? Andy, thank you. Fun as always.
Andy Lubershane: Thanks, Shayle. Take care.
