SOURCE-LINKED INTELLIGENCE

A Game-Theoretic Framework for Incentive-Compatible AI training Under Renewable-Energy Constraints

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 14, 2026 · UTC

As artificial intelligence systems increasingly rely on distributed and collaborative training, the energy footprint of these processes becomes a shared responsibility. Modern AI training often unfolds across heterogeneous compute nodes-ranging from cloud clusters to edge devices-whose energy availability is spatially and temporally variable. At the same time, renewable energy grids experience growing levels of excess generation, creating opportunities to align computational workloads with low-carbon energy supply. In this work, we develop a game-theoretic model of carbon-aware AI training in
