U.S. AI REVOLUTION
U.S. DOE - November 24, 2025 - President Trump today issued an Executive Order to launch the Genesis Mission, a historic national effort led by the Department of Energy. The Genesis Mission will transform American science and innovation through the power of artificial intelligence (AI), strengthening the nation’s technological leadership and global competitiveness.
The ambitious mission will harness the current AI and advanced computing revolution to double the productivity and impact of American science and engineering within a decade. It will deliver decisive breakthroughs to secure American energy dominance, accelerate scientific discovery, and strengthen national security.
“Throughout history, from the Manhattan Project to the Apollo mission, our nation’s brightest minds and industries have answered the call when their nation needed them,” said U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright. “Today, the United States is calling on them once again. Under President Trump’s leadership, the Genesis Mission will unleash the full power of our National Laboratories, supercomputers, and dataresources to ensure that America is the global leader in artificial intelligence and to usher in a new golden era of American discovery.”
The announcement builds on President Trump’s Executive Order Removing Barriers to American Leadership In Artificial Intelligence and advances his America’s AI Action Plan released earlier this year—a directive to remove barriers to innovation, reduce dependence on foreign adversaries, and unleash the full strength of America’s scientific enterprise.
Secretary Wright has designated Under Secretary for Science Darío Gil to lead the initiative. The Genesis Mission will mobilize the Department of Energy’s 17 National Laboratories, industry, and academia to build an integrated discovery platform.
The platform will connect the world’s best supercomputers, AI systems, and next-generation quantum systems with the most advanced scientific instruments in the nation. Once complete, the platform will be the world’s most complex and powerful scientific instrument ever built. It will draw on the expertise of roughly 40,000 DOE scientists, engineers, and technical staff, alongside private sector innovators, to ensure that the United States leads and builds the technologies that will define the future.
The Genesis Mission will focus on addressing three key challenges of national importance:
- American energy dominance: The Genesis Mission will accelerate advanced nuclear, fusion, and grid modernization using AI to provide affordable, reliable, and secure energy for Americans.
- Advancing discovery science: Through DOE’s investment and collaboration with industry, America is building the quantum ecosystem that will power discoveries—and industries—for decades to come.
- Ensuring national security: DOE will create advanced AI technologies for national security missions, deploy systems to ensure the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear stockpile, and accelerate the development of defense-ready materials.

DATA CENTERS ENERGY DEMAND UP
In 2026, US data center demand will rise to 75.8 GW for IT equipment, cooling, lighting and other uses, and further expand to 108 GW in 2028 and 134.4 GW in 2030, according to the outlook.

ENERGY FOR DATA CENTERS
By 2030, U.S. data centers will account for approximately 12% of the total U.S. power demand — an increase of approximately 400 terawatt hours (TWh) from today.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR SAFETY IN UTILITIES
Artificial intelligence offers a path forward. Unlike traditional analytics, which require structured datasets, large language models (LLMs) and other AI methods can process the messy, real-world inputs where SIF precursors often hide: handwritten field observations, free-text incident narratives, transcribed toolbox talks, and even voice recordings.

GLOBAL ELECTRICITY SYSTEM TRANSFORMATION
The global electricity system is undergoing a major transformation, shifting from a traditional, centralized model to a more digital, decentralized one.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR VIRTUAL POWER PLANTS
Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) and Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) have been positioned as solutions for more than a decade, but the real challenge has always been scale. A thousand rooftop solar arrays or community batteries don’t naturally operate like a single 500-MW power plant. To function reliably, they need coordination that is far more sophisticated than simple scheduling.

GLOBAL ENERGY TRANSITION FINANCING STOP
The world’s leading banks spent just 89 cents on low-carbon energy companies and projects such as wind, solar and grids for every dollar they allocated to fossil fuels.

DATA CENTERS NEED ENERGY
The IEA projects power demand from data centers to double by 2030. While renewable energy capacity is also set to increase, especially in Europe, the intermittent supplies provided by wind and solar won’t be sufficient.
