Powering AI and Growing Food: How EnergiAcres is Rewriting the Energy Playbook, with Shawn Cutter
Manage episode 515151034 series 2716844
In this episode, Shawn Cutter, Founder and CEO of EnergiAcres, shares how his company is tackling the data center energy crisis with a truly circular solution that sustains energy, food, and water simultaneously. Drawing from his roots as a sixth-generation Ohio farmer and his experience in technology and oil and gas, Shawn explains how EnergiAcres integrates combined heat and power (CHP) systems with controlled environment agriculture (CEA) to create a closed-loop ecosystem that powers AI infrastructure while growing local food.
He describes how waste heat and CO₂ from power generation are repurposed to fuel greenhouse production, turning traditional inefficiencies into opportunities for community growth and sustainability. Through public-private partnerships and workforce training, EnergiAcres’ model not only reduces environmental impact but also revitalizes local economies. Shawn paints a compelling picture of the data center of 2030 — one that’s resilient, regenerative, and rooted in purpose.
