## Quote — verbatim

> Because the fabric is location flexible, schedulers can follow the sun and the wind — route PyTorch jobs to green hotspots at 11:00 a.m., shift to night wind regions at 2 a.m. Treated as flexible demand, AI becomes a grid asset, not a burden, absorbing surplus and backing off during peaks. That's how we scale sustainably.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Energy-aware routing with grid carbon intensity in the scheduler cost function; captions render "grid asset" as "great asset."
