40% Chance
Utilities, grid operators, and state regulators respond to the record-demand outlook by speeding transmission, transformer, and substation investment. This is the most likely path because data-center load growth is already visible in PJM, ERCOT, and the Southeast, while reliability warnings are becoming harder for regulators to ignore.
