Most compute infrastructure connects to the grid and hopes there's enough power. Aerion flips that: we go directly to wind turbines already producing energy the grid can't use power normally just switched off (curtailment costs Germany €2.8B/year). Our AI Operator converts that otherwise-wasted energy into compute in real time, zero grid transport, no new permitting. Unlike offset-based 'green compute' claims, this is energy that's wasted either way now doing useful work.
Hi Product Hunt,
I'm Mareen, Co-Founder & CEO of Aerion.
Here's the problem we're obsessed with: every year, grid operators are forced to switch off perfectly good wind turbines because the grid can't handle the power. Germany alone wasted 9.4 TWh this way in 2024 enough clean energy to matter, just thrown away because there's nowhere for it to go.
So instead of waiting for the grid to catch up, we bring the compute to the turbine. Our AI Operator sits on-site and converts energy that would otherwise be curtailed into usable compute power in real time no new grid connection, no years-long permitting process, because we're using infrastructure that's already there and already running.
Our first pilot site has been live in Germany since April 2026, and we're now scaling to a second location.
We'd love your feedback especially if you work in energy, data infrastructure, or AI, but honestly also if you just think grid waste is as frustrating as we do. What questions do you have? Happy to go deep on the technical side too.

Who hunted Aerion?
Aerion was hunted by Aerion. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
