In June 2025, New Jersey families opened electric bills that were $22 to $28 a month higher. Same houses, same weather, no new pool. The biggest reason had been decided eleven months earlier — in an auction for power plants most people have never heard of. And the new demand that drove the price up came from buildings full of computers. This is how artificial intelligence got into your electric bill: the PJM capacity auction that serves 65 million people across 13 states and D.C., the data-center boom in Northern Virginia, the record shortfall, the emergency auction federal regulators sent back — and why it has become one of the hottest issues of the 2026 midterms.
