CATALYST Assertion Not checkable as stated
Elder: Early off-grid data center projects fail to maintain 90% uptime
“When we, we've heard some of the early data from some of the off-grid projects that have been built so far, the ANIC data suggests they're not able to stay above even 90% uptime yet.”

CATALYST Assertion Not checkable as stated
Elder: A 4-square-kilometer orbital data center would sustain hourly debris strikes
“If you scale that up to a single floating thing that's four kilometers, four square kilometers large, you can basically expect to have a piece of space debris hitting that you know, data center every hour.”
Jake Elder Mar 12, 2026 ▶ 32:26 AI scaling pathways: on grid, on edge, off grid, off planet
CATALYST Prediction Not checkable as stated
Elder: Substantial AI model training will happen in space within 30 years
“In 20 years or 30 years, there's gonna be a lot of AI models being trained in particular in space”
Jake Elder Mar 12, 2026 ▶ 38:40 AI scaling pathways: on grid, on edge, off grid, off planet
CATALYST Assertion Supported
Elder: Interconnecting gigawatt-scale data centers takes 5 to 7 years in many markets
“How, how long can we, how much time will it take to build out the transmission capacity necessary to interconnect these mega sites, gigawatt scale sites to new power supply, ideally, you know, carbon free power supply. And in many markets, right, that's runnin…”
Jake Elder Mar 12, 2026 ▶ 5:55 AI scaling pathways: on grid, on edge, off grid, off planet
CATALYST Assertion Supported
Elder: Stripe and Scale study found 1TW+ off-grid potential in Southwest
“There was this foundational study that came out about two years ago that was co-authored by Stripe and Paces and Scale Microgrids, and they found over a terawatt of opportunity in the American Southwest alone, with high levels of renewable development being ab…”

CATALYST Insight
Elder: Off-grid setups partially bypass generation bottlenecks with modular equipment
“The off-grid option in some ways maybe shortcuts the actual supply chain bottlenecks on the generation equipment side, at least to some extent relative to the other options. But I agree with you, there's still a bunch of other pieces of equipment, transformers…”

CATALYST Assertion Partly supported
Elder: ISS rejects under 100 kW heat with soccer-field-sized radiator
“I think the whole International Space Station, for example, rejects less than a hundred kilowatts of heat in total, and they have a radiator the size of a soccer field, right?”
