Entero Therapeutics, Inc., Launches Grid AI Corp to Redefine How AI Infrastructure Connects to the Power Grid
Rhea-AI Summary
Entero Therapeutics (NASDAQ:ENTO) launched Grid AI Corp. on October 16, 2025 to coordinate AI data center compute with electric grids. The company says rising AI demand will push global data center electricity beyond 1,000 TWh and that AI workloads account for over 30% of that growth, requiring more than $1 trillion in new energy and digital infrastructure investment.
Grid AI's platform claims to orchestrate and dispatch flexible data center loads in real time, unlocking stranded capacity, shortening interconnection timelines, and enabling participation in demand-response and ancillary markets. Analysts cited estimate flexible capacity (5–10%) could free >100 GW, accelerate deployments by up to 24 months, and create a $150–$200 billion annual addressable market for software and controls.
Positive
- Platform targets >1,000 TWh projected data center demand
- Ability to dispatch load in sub-second intervals
- Potential to unlock >100 GW with 5–10% flexibility
- Addressable market estimated at $150–$200 billion annually
Negative
- More than $1 trillion in new infrastructure needed to sustain AI growth
- Power delivery constraints could delay or derail AI infrastructure rollout
- AI data center power demand expected to quadruple by 2030

BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / October 16, 2025 / Entero Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:ENTO) ("ENTO" or the "Company") a company pioneering innovation at the intersection of biotechnology and AI-driven energy infrastructure launches Grid AI Corp., to redefine how artificial intelligence infrastructure connects to the power grid.
According to the company, the rise of artificial intelligence is driving the fastest infrastructure build-out in modern history and power is the new bottleneck. Over the next decade, global data center electricity demand is projected to exceed 1,000 terawatt-hours annually, with AI workloads alone representing over
Grid AI Corp., is orchestrating, managing, and dispatching flexible data center loads, Grid AI transforms data centers from static consumers of electricity into dynamic, intelligent grid assets. The company's platform enables real-time coordination between compute demand and grid conditions, unlocking stranded capacity, reducing interconnection timelines, and accelerating AI infrastructure deployment by years. Grid AI's solutions can help unlock gigawatts of incremental grid capacity across North America and beyond, allowing data centers, utilities, and investors to scale faster, cleaner, and more profitably.
The world's largest technology companies are validating this shift. In October 2025, Google announced partnerships with Indiana Michigan Power and the Tennessee Valley Authority to integrate demand-response capabilities directly into its AI data centers, dynamically rescheduling machine-learning tasks in real time to support the grid during periods of stress. As Google explained, such flexibility reduces the need to build new transmission and power plants, and helps grid operators manage power more efficiently. (Source: Google Blog - 'How we're making data centers more flexible to benefit power grids', October 2025.)
This marks a paradigm shift: hyperscalers, utilities, and regulators are converging around a new model where flexibility is the key to speed. Research from RMI, McKinsey, and BloombergNEF estimates that 5
The Grid AI Advantage
Grid AI's orchestration platform sits at the nexus of these two megatrends, the rise of AI compute and the electrification of everything. Our technology allows data centers to:
• Seamlessly integrate with utility and ISO signals
• Dispatch, modulate, or curtail load in sub-second intervals without interrupting mission-critical operations
• Aggregate flexible capacity across multiple sites for grid and market participation
• Capture new revenue streams through demand response and ancillary service markets
By enabling intelligent control of data center power, Grid AI unlocks new value for every stakeholder: faster grid connections for operators, lower costs for utilities, and higher returns for investors. The Company is not just solving a bottleneck, they are redefining how AI infrastructure connects to the world's power systems.
The Opportunity Ahead
The market opportunity for grid-responsive AI infrastructure is enormous. With AI data center power demand expected to quadruple by 2030, even modest levels of flexibility adoption could translate into a
This is the moment where the power grid meets the intelligence revolution. Grid AI is the bridge and the future of scalable AI depends on it.
