AI Infrastructure Commentary Notes on the Federal Data Behind Our Reports

Silicon Curve briefs are AI infrastructure commentary: short, opinionated reads on what we noticed in the federal electricity data and why we think it matters. They are written alongside our research reports, not in place of them. A brief carries the argument. The report carries the evidence.

Each brief takes one question from a published report and answers it in a few minutes. The series-level detail behind it, every figure traced to a named EIA or FRED release, the full methodology, the source tables and the charts, lives in the research report itself. Briefs published so far cover the firmness gap between nuclear and solar generation, national generation volume against industrial rates, and the Virginia demand signal behind the data center build-out.
