Focusing just on SPP electricity demand, Figure 16 breaks down consumption by sector with data centers and electrolysis shown separately. Data centers represent a large increase in load across the Scenarios; however, transportation also consumes significant electricity, particularly in the Full Electrification Scenario. These electricity demands do not include transmission and distribution (T&D) losses.

In the Moderate and Full Electrification Scenarios, electrolysis makes up around one third of electricity demand. However, unlike with conventional loads, co-location with renewable resources is an incentivized outcome. As noted elsewhere, the hydrogen outcome is because SPP is an attractive place for hydrogen to locate due to abundant wind resources. Vehicles are shown next down and have the highest absolute load growth after hydrogen. Space and water heating exhibits growth in the Full Electrification Scenario, but the growth is less dramatic on an annual energy basis than when examining key winter hours after building electrification. Finally, industrial electrification is seen at the bottom of the figure in the Full Electrification Scenario, including electrification of oil and gas production. Electricity consumption from oil and gas increases in the medium term after electrification but decreases in the long term as the demand for petroleum products is reduced after high rates of electrification.
