01 · Core systems

Energy is the first constraint on AI. A model can be moved. Racks can be swapped. Megawatts cannot be produced by a software update.

Power is designed before anything else. Every other system follows the connection.

ArchitectureGrid, generation, storage and photovoltaics.

Leonardo da Vinci · Madrid Codices · Biblioteca Nacional de España

Grid connection, combined heat and power, storage and photovoltaics form one stack. The adit joins it as heat: water at 10–12 °C is a source for a heat pump in winter and free cooling in summer, never electricity. Each layer carries its own status and its own date. They are never added into a single number.

Documents · Technical overview · not yet published.

Quedlinburg has its own existing connection, storage and roof. Blankenburg's connection request was filed in March 2026 and is in review.

Control

Metering is continuous and per layer. A layer that is planned reports as planned.
