The headline says "partly". Your comment agrees with that.

  I don't even agree with partly. 100% of the blame, in my opinion, is on the policy-caused supply restrictions. I will admit that this is at least partially a semantic debate about what "cause" means, but in my opinion "blaming", even partially, AI, data-centers, or any other large power consumer for the price increases actively makes solving the problem harder and is anti-useful.

    Why does it make solving the problem harder? If demand went up, it went up so build more supply. Talking about the cause of the demand doesn't hinder building more supply.

    I thought there were technical and logistical hurdles to attaching new power while maintaining grid stability, and that's the primary bottleneck and indeed the reason the regulations exist to being with?
