Welcome to the Load to Ruin
When AI Consumes the Grid—and the Paychecks Meant to Fund It
📘 About Load to Ruin
Load to Ruin is the first installment in a three-part white paper series exploring the collapse of the legacy investor-owned utility (IOU) business model under the combined weight of hyperscale growth, AI-driven job displacement, and infrastructure cost misalignment.
This paper is available in three formats:
Full Article: Published in its entirety here for open access. No email gating EVER!

PDF Download: Available at the bottom of this page for offline access or traditional formatting.
Over the coming months, I’ll be publishing:
Two additional white papers, covering:
Scenario planning for post-labor grid finance models.
Policy interventions that could prevent collapse or accelerate transition.
A companion blog series, designed for non-industry leaders—investors, public officials, journalists, and engaged citizens—who want to understand how today’s utility economics are being quietly rewritten by forces they didn’t see coming.
If you're a policymaker, regulator, energy investor, or just grid-curious, I hope this series offers a clearer view into what’s really happening beneath rising utility bills—and who pays when the system breaks.
