SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / April 17, 2026 / Elektros Inc. (OTC PINK:ELEK), a lithium mining and emerging energy technology company, today announced a strategic research initiative aimed at developing next-generation, energy-efficient algorithms to significantly reduce the power consumption of artificial intelligence (AI) data centers.
To lead this initiative, the Company has engaged Next Realm AI as its principal advisor, leveraging its deep expertise in advanced AI research and algorithm development to guide the program's design and execution.
As AI infrastructure scales globally at an unprecedented rate, data centers have rapidly become one of the largest and fastest-growing consumers of electricity worldwide. Elektros believes that improving algorithmic efficiency-independent of hardware advancements-represents one of the most powerful and underutilized opportunities to reduce both the environmental impact and operating costs of AI systems.
"The energy demands of AI infrastructure have reached a critical inflection point," said Shlomo Bleier, CEO of Elektros, Inc.
"We believe the most scalable and impactful solutions will come from rethinking the code and algorithms that power these systems from the ground up. Partnering with Next Realm AI positions Elektros at the forefront of this transformation."
Next Realm AI emphasized that algorithmic innovation remains one of the most underleveraged drivers of efficiency in the AI sector today, and that its collaboration with Elektros is aligned with the broader industry imperative to build AI systems that are not only more powerful, but fundamentally more sustainable.
This initiative builds upon foundational research from Epoch AI and MIT FutureTech, which demonstrates that advancements in algorithm design have delivered efficiency gains comparable to, or exceeding, those achieved through increased computing power.
Algorithmic progress has contributed to nearly half of all performance improvements in large language models in recent years, and the compute required to reach a given level of AI performance has halved approximately every eight months, outpacing Moore's Law.
Elektros and Next Realm AI intend to expand on this foundation by developing proprietary approaches to algorithmic efficiency, with the objective of delivering measurable reductions in energy consumption across AI data center operations.
