SPECIFICATION · HPC COMPUTE

Keep the
losses.

Power delivered across transmission arrives diminished and surcharged. Siting the load at the generator retains the energy and the margin that would otherwise be spent moving it.

REFERENCE ARCHITECTURE · PROPOSAL

This describes a proposed reference architecture. It is not a shipping product and no vendor partnership is claimed or implied. Interfaces and standards conformance are specification intent; quantities are design targets.

Design basis
LOSS PATH

Transmission and distribution

Energy delivered over distance is reduced by line losses. Co-location removes most of that path and the losses with it.

TARIFF

Wheeling and demand charges

Delivered-power tariffs carry transmission and demand components that a behind-the-meter load does not incur in the same form.

EFFECT

Margin redirected

Energy cost is the dominant operating expense for accelerated compute. Retained margin funds compute capacity rather than delivery.

CAVEAT

Jurisdiction dependent

Tariff structures vary materially. Any specific saving is a project-level calculation, not a general claim.

Integration notes

Actual economics depend on the host's tariff, generation cost basis, and contracted capacity. No universal figure is claimed; each site requires its own analysis.
