Sprouts Farmers Market Planned for Savannah’s Crossroads Shopping Center

“Ever drive past Crossroads on Victory Drive and wonder what’s going on behind that black fence?” asked a Facebook post published by PIER Commercial Real Estate last week. “Here’s the answer. A new Sprouts grocery store is going up at Crossroads Shopping Center, right at Victory Drive and Skidaway Road. It will be Savannah’s first Sprouts. The east end of the center came down to make room for a brand new grocery space of about 23,000 square feet. Doyle Construction is on site, and the opening is expected in 2027.”

OpenAI pledges data center power cuts

OpenAI is vowing to reduce electricity use at U.S. data center campuses it directly develops when extreme weather or other emergencies strain the power grid. Why it matters: OpenAI is moving to build its own data centers just as public and political backlash over their electricity demands threatens the industry's expansion plans. Driving the news: The "Grid Protectors Program" envisions going national with existing commitments at the planned data center campus in Effingham County, Georgia. That's where OpenAI has pledged to cut electricity demand by up to a gigawatt when the grid needs relief, equivalent to the power use of roughly 700,000 homes. State of play: "[O]ur ambition is to make this kind of flexibility a core part of how we build and operate future campuses," OpenAI will state in a blog post later today. "That means ... working with utilities to agree on how much demand can be reduced, how quickly and for how long," it states. The specific arrangements will vary by campus, with details announced as they're finalized. What they're saying: John McCarrick, OpenAI's head of energy policy, said the initiative reflects a shift in industry thinking, improving tech, and community feedback. "I was in a meeting
